Not "one or two websites". There are already kind of too many Firebird
websites. It should be *THE* Firebird website.

When entering the Firebird website, www.firebirdsql.org, the main page
should contain material focused on:

1. End users/IT managers etc.
2. Developers who write applications based on Firebird.
3. A link to a separate website for the actual Firebird db engine
developers.

The first item ssems to be somewhat missing as it is now. The news and
events section, which takes up most of the main page, should probably be
replaced with more promotional content. Look at how commercial software
sites are organized.
