Ok, I know nothing about web stuff, but I guess the work flow would be 
something like the following.
The KDE PIM webpage is apparently located at 
http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/www/areas/pim/. So I'd say one should check that 
out using SVN 
(http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Sources/Using_Subversion_with_KDE#Checking_out), 
and then building it/make it run locally. I have absolutely no idea about the 
building/make it run locally part, it probably involves setting up Apache. I 
guess someone with PHP experience knows better than me about this step.
Well, the next step would be to modify the code then and make the page look 
cool again, and probably update the content a bit. I remember somebody made 
nice screenshots of KDE PIM in KDE 4.1, they should be included and the old 
ones removed. Allen, can you attach them here?

After the changes are done, send the patch (output of svn diff) to here and 
somebody with commit access can commit it. Or get a SVN account 
(http://techbase.kde.org/Contribute/Get_a_SVN_Account) and commit yourself.

Hope that helps and that the steps are correct.

Regards,
Thomas
