I'm a bit with Gour here, but partly because I want both - structure and
quick access.

I know I proposed to put everything into News once, but that would also
mean there's a lot happening there and little elsewhere.

If we had:

News tab: Releases and other important events
Overview,Screenshots,Download,Documentation,Development: stay the same
Activities: a new tab where we post about what will be new in the next
release and what we've been up to in general.

Then we'd rename what is now "Other recent news" to "Recent Posts" and
we have all of the good stuff:

- posts are nicely categorised
- frequent visitors can quickly see what has been added

With regard to the latter point, I really welcome the "Recent Posts"
section. Anyway, you already put in the work to set it up (which for me
is another reason to keep it).

Axel.
