Thanks, about the info. It is true that the FAQ wasn't clear. I found out about Google Sites this afternoon, which offers more options for a project presentation (more HTML tags, CSS support ...). I think I will use both options for my project. The presentation will be done on Google Sites and the sources and downloads will remain on Google Code.
