Hi Lennart, hi Yurii

Personally, as a "user" I'm first of all looking to the direct links to get "the packages" and "the help" to them. 
So, "Packages, Tutorials and Manuals" - I can see easily, but "Support" is somewhere far away and it has too much details, which anyway lead me back to the "Packages, Tutorials and Manuals". And "Forum" just suddenly appears somewhere in between.. I just mean, that "Packages, Tutorials, Manuals, Forum" - is a necessary minimum to start working with the *ABEL.

I'm totally agree that it might be good idea to combine the items. E.g., why not to input "Tutorials, Manuals, Forum" in the "Support" and place the direct link to the "Support" right after the "Packages"? 

The other thing, I would say "People, Contribute, For developers" - They also could be perfectly combined. Because it's mainly a message for/about people who would like to contribute. 

best :)

The second 

I have a feeling that to combine items is a very good idea.
