Front page violates branding agreement

On Bazaar's front page it should be

Download bzr 1.0 (or bzr-1.0 ?)

In the next sentence Bazaar 1.0 is mentioned, I think this should be
bzr 1.0, too.

I think that for newcomers it would be helpful to explain *on the
front page* that Bazaar is the project and bzr its product, now at
version 1.0.  There should be a link to the Branding page, which
should be updated to include the explanation of package names.
Things are unclear because the package name of baz is bazaar, but the
name Baz 1.0 is used on the page HistoryOfBazaar.

The package bazaar-1.4.2 exists in many distributions, and bazaar-ng
is still used as a package name, see e.g.

http://www.macports.org/ports.php?by=name&substr=bazaar
http://www.freshports.org/search.php?query=bazaar

I have an account on bazaar-vcs now and could help with the changes.

Congratulations to the release!

Nils
