Perhaps we can do an user oriented navigation structure.

|               | Desktop users | Developers | Press | Bussiness |

| What is Gnome |
| other         |

If I am a delevoper, the "Contents Bar" should have all the links
related to developers with Gnome (How to get involved, cvs instructions,
devel doc, etc).
In each "web site user" section could appear a link to get involved (for
ex: Desktop users => do translations, mantain web site; Developers =>
apps; Press => talk about Gnome, join the press list; Biz => put money
:)
