Definitely not. Its simplicity is its main beauty.

Stephan,

  Good comments from your point of view. However, what the development team
needs to define is the audience -- or audiences -- they want to effectively
reach. Not everyone looking at the web site is a linux/*BSD user, highly
involved with database management systems, code development, or other
technical aspects. Quite often the key decision-maker knows little about the
technology, but needs to be assured that there is a solid business reason
for adopting it. These folks need to see something more appealing to them.
