- K, hope pretty much everything is back in - I left out the Strategy guides on purpose, because I don't think they have a place in the "public face" of the Spring site (don't care if they're hidden somewhere). The reason is, the site is about the engine - I think it makes sense to also showcase which games are using it, but explaining those games is better left to the games one homepages, that's my opinion.

Maybe we should have a more general discussion of what should displayed by the site/sitemap ? Related to this is what should go in which of our "top-bar" pages. I would suggest:
- Present Spring as an Engine (currently About)
- Present Games that use Spring (Games)
- Enable people to install and use spring (Download for installation, FAQaka Help for usage, ??)
- Support improvement and work on the Engine (is in Source Development)
- Support work on content and games (This is also in Source Development, but I think it should have an seperate page)
That would cover everything I think the Spring site should be about / display visibly.
