I think that to be really successful this should

2. Give a sense of activity across all the projects, to contribute to
the feeling that Linaro produces lots of good stuff: a wiki page linking
to the Launchpad project pages for each component fails here.

3. Provide a way for people to find out about new things (the broadcasts
may provide this)

If our primary users are third party developers I would encourage to include some reference to source code trees. I realize that Linaro is still struggling with our presentation layer (wiki, website, etc) so this might seem redundant but it would help to answer questions like

1) "Where is the "linaro" source code?" a.k.a. "I just heard about those guys, I want to check what they are doing and the homepage didn't give me anything after 30 seconds of looking"

2) "What kind of activity happens in each tree?" I'm not sure what the solution is.

3) "There are many trees for $FOO, which one is for me?" This probably needs more research too

4) "I need $BAR which and I cannot find it on your page, where is it?" I can imagine that some developers will come looking for things which we do not provide (integrated android kernel tree, binary drivers for some board, that kind of stuff). We should be able to answer this if possible.

James, is there any way we can request some designer help once the requirements are set? This is really a PR/first-impression kind of thing, even for developers.

Thanks
ZK
