Very nice!  It is visually pleasing; well organized; and has just the 
right amount of information for a front page.

There is one minor curiosity on my part, though.  In the "Quick Start" 
side-bar, the very first (and thus, most common) workflow ends with an 
'hg export'.  Why is that?  Is 'export' really the most common way of 
sharing patches?

I ask only because in all of my Mercurial usage, I've only ever had to 
use 'hg export' *once*.  In day-to-day usage, it's always push/pull.  Is 
that an anomaly?
