That one I think is legitimate - and not just for Pharo but for almost every Open Source project out there. I think every project's home page should keep first time in visitors in mind. (My very least favourite thing for the first page of a site is to see the project commit log - talk about unwelcoming!). And to say something positive - Pharo 1.0 looks great - solid and serious and workable. A couple of my co-workers have called my bluff and asked for a Smalltalk tutorial, and I'll be happy to show them Pharo.
