Hi Victor,

It's interesting that many aren't aware of Csound5.  I know with the
Java IDE Netbeans, they've started to advertise the 5.0 beta with a
very prominent icon and links.  Maybe when we can get installers and
packages done, we should pursue the same type of thing on the
csounds.com page, with some kind of fancy icon (there's an example of
this on http://www.netbeans.org).  A Csound5 page with a summary note
of major changes like the netbeans page would be informative for
people who have used Csound in the past and may be interested to see
what the major changes are.
