Simple:
- - will you maintain the current mess ?
- - will the current mess be maintainable at all in some years ?
- - where does the user get his first impression of kde ? normally it starts 
with looking at the pages and downloading it (if it is not allready on the 
distro)
- - where does the user search for infos ?

The webpages are at least the 1st representation of kde and the place users 
start to search for help, therefor a bit work on it won't be that bad. And 
simply giving the current pages a new design without cleaning up the 
structure and giving the user a better navigation/overview would be just, as 
Neil mentioned sometimes ago (Neil, hope don'T quote you wrong): change for 
the matter of change. 

P.S.
Pain will it mostly for me, as I will try to get that stuff working and for 
the people who want to help, not for the rest.
