Clean up Edubuntu Homepage

[David Van Assche]

I think the current website structure is fine, though it requires
content to be added to it. The reason LTSP is not mentioned
specifically is because we don't want edubuntu to be just about thin
terminals. Its a very small part of what edubuntu is about, the more
important part being the educational packages that are available. LTSP
has its own documentation and its own mailing list, as well as its own
hompage and wiki.

In terms of what is used, there are lots of options inlcuding
kompozer, quanta, and bluefish. For some of the more complicated
pages, I used dreamweaver, just because to visulise how things will
look there isn't really an alternative.

kind regards,
David Van Assche
