Description
Thinking from the point of view of someone seeing the PDL website for the first time or a new prospective user. The two central paragraphs are broad and short, whereas the news feed is thin and long. This creates visual and usability imbalance. Perhaps the page will be more pleasant to read and browse for a new visitor if the feed is limited to the last N important changes, while pointing in the last entry to a more complete history somewhere else? How long back in time should the "recent news" feed reasonably go? The current one goes back to 2014. Is all this still relevant today?

Research direction
Review the PDL website's current recent-news feed and the two central paragraphs to understand the visual and usability imbalance described. Determine an agreed time span or item limit and where a complete history should be linked; the work is done only once that scope is decided and reflected on the site.
