If you guys do redesign perl.apache.org, please, PLEASE take usability
into account. http://www.useit.com/ is a great resource about how to make

I've seen too many corporate websites that load slow, and is hard to find
any *useful* information in them. A bad offender that I can think of off
the top of my head is http://www.advertising.com/.

Agreed! I assumed usability would be taken into account in any new design. 
:-) Two jobs ago I worked for a web development shop whose primary focus 
was on user-centered design, so I know all about keeping the end user in mind.
