Glad to have a discussion on it. Open to changes. The colours don't mean a lot. Green for getting going. Red for problems. Otherwise just making it more attractive.
I cannot believe that you think http://www.waze.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page&oldid=4101 was more usable. But if you can get two other people to agree I'll gladly back off. Can you really find two people not related to you who think it looks confused and worse than the old version? Really?
Objectives: The first two things you see are how to get started with Waze
, hitting all the problem areas at once, and that Waze supports different languages. So you can immediately jump your your country/language, without being put off by a swathe of English.
Then how to help develop Waze as a next logical step, side by side with current problems.
Finally at the end, giving people encouragement that Waze is at work with various projects and developments. Why your pet project hasn't been implemented because there are bigger, more urgent developments being worked on. And then more technical stuff.
So you can get to everything from the front page. Working down from beginner to ultra advanced.
Yes we could lose the table, but I want to be able to see Getting Started, and my country at first glance. And there's plenty of space that can be used.
My opinions. And jolly good ones. Your mileage will vary. :-)

Hm I´m not sure if the latest changes do realy improve the usability. What was wrong about the old layout without a table. What sense do the colors make? Is there a code which I do not understand? Sorry, but now it looks a little bit confused. morlano
