What should the portal-site contain?

[Philippe Monnet]

Another couple suggestions for the portal: rotating content (to keep the 
site fresh)
- features on sites using Camping
- code snippets
- interesting extensions (e.g. OpenID, Windows Auth, REST, ...)
Maybe we could also use some of Why's cartoons (see his sidebar 
<http://mislav.uniqpath.com/poignant-guide/book/chapter-3.html> on 
Commercial Uses of the (Poignant) Guide). This could make the site 
visually fun too.
