Well, I think it should be kept somewhere at the top. It I were a new 
user and saw the website I'm pretty sure I could hardly notice the 
languages at the bottom. One has to scroll down even with higher 
resolution to see the bottom of the page, so one can't see the website 
as a whole. What about moving the list of the mirrors somewhere else? 
Personally, I never use it, since the primary mirror is always so fast, 
that there's no need for it to me. Of course, it does not mean that 
other people don't use mirrors, but if the primary mirror has a good 
connection with the small and poor Hungary, I can suppose other people 
can reach it quickly as well. :) Or what about enwidering the language 
bar? There's a lot of space above the yellow button "Get FreeBSD now". I 
now it can be done with tables, but I don't know if it's possible with divs.

Gabor
