I agree. Lots of developers will hug you if you get the website right (which basically means up-to-date news, announcements, and docs -- if any of these is outdated it leads to unfavorable results with people who actually trust websites presenting the latest stuff; I've had several discussions already about why bioperl has a 1.0 release if the news says 0.7).
