[fpc-pascal] Preview: New Website layout

[DougC]

Or, even better, a summary count and the topic titles of the last few forums messages, posted monthly or weekly. That should reflect there is activity going on.

Well, while having a news section would be nice, it's equally true that 
it makes no sense if it isn't maintained and unless somebody volunteers 
to ensure keeping it updated (meaning - actively searching for news 
worth publishing there on e.g. monthly basis), we may expect that the 
situation we've had up to now doesn't improve (and indeed, news section 
with no updates is worse than no news section at all). However, Marco's 
comment about the number of commits not necessarily providing real 
information may be true as well. What about extending it with e.g. the 
last three commit messages for the compiler directory (statically 
updated on daily basis and accompanied with a link to the gitlab page 
providing the latest details dynamically)? Or maybe three messages for 
the compiler directory and three commit messages for packages? Like: 
 
git log -n 3 main -- compiler 
 
and 
 
git log -n 3 main -- packages
