I couldn't find a link to Satoshis technical paper on the new website design. It was already kind of hidden, but losing it entirely is a mistake IMHO. Satoshis paper is the only serious explanation of how BitCoin actually works (the wiki really isn't as good).

Could a link to his paper be restored to the front page?

The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

I for one was almost scared away from bitcoin at the simplicity of the bitcoin paper. Quite a quick read for such a world changing thing.

I also think it should be linked.
The paper really convinced me of the awesomeness of bitcoin.

Yes, please put a link to the whitepaper prominently on the front page. I did not take Bitcoin seriously until I stumbled upon the paper.
