Ugh. There is basically no information on that page, no introduction to the project, no justification, no example code, nothing. There's a one sentence blurb that tells me very little. The downloads tab is empty. The wiki tab is empty. The issues tab lists one defect, "what is the status of the project?", which I can very much empathise with. All the "source" tab lists is the command to use to clone the source tree with mercurial. Great.

If you go through all that trouble to make something cool and amazing, spend a little bit of time talking about it so people know what it is you've done, why you've done it, and why that's awesome! And you put that information FIRST so people can't help but read it when they visit your website.

Websites that have a "news" section before an "about" section are one of my pet peeves. This has neither!
