I just posted a comment on you mockup page, but I want to repeat  it here
for the benefit of those who haven't clicked through:

"I hesitate to be just another commenter who merely says "this is great"
(which is really is), so instead I'll say that ruby home page would be 100
times better by just adopting this as is, without debate. And then move
forward by tweaking on this excellent start!"
