Metalinker.org issues

[Nils]

First of all, the following page is simply "broken" display wise:
http://www.metalinker.org/why.html

Then I find it rather hard to navigate the page, especially finding
information about the current "release" specification as well as the
ietf draft.

I'd like to see a better structure there:
* Homepage
* Why it matters...
* Using metalinks/Getting started (instead of "download")
* Specification
* Tools
* Who is using...
* Getting in touch/Contributing

The XML screenshot of the OOo metalink is a little confusion out of
context. I first thought it was a frame displaying real xml. ;)

The text also needs some more generous whitespace/padding in my
opinion and more consistent styling (headlines of a certain level
should share the same font size, for example).

yes! can someone please fix this. Bram brought it up a while ago but I
dropped the ball.

sounds pretty good.

if someone can do this too, it'd be great!
