New website

Hi

I like the site overall, but in the Julia Observer list, I’m missing the test status that was available in the old site’s package listing.
Frequently when I’m looking for a package related to a topic, I searched the list for keywords and then looked at the very short description and the test status.
While it doesn’t tell you how much is really tested, it does give a sense that if the package fails tests in the last 2 versions and the date was a year ago that the package is probably stale and abandoned. This was atleast a warning to use with caution and/or maybe search a bit more if there isn’t a more active and recent substitute even if they used slightly different wording in their descriptions.

Especially with all the breaking changes switching from 0.6 to 0.7 and later, I’m missing a proper feedback on when I can attempt switching my work code to 0.7. Currently the package listing page seems to indicate I should probably still wait with only 20% working.
All of the datestamped changes to package test status also only seem to be on the left 0.6 column, no changes on the 0.7 column…?
