The new Launchpad 3.0 home page expoeses a featured project on top of the others with large logo and name and a short summary. Currently this is simply the first project from the featured project list, so it is always the alphabetically first project. The orginal design does not give a clue, which project is supposed to be featured there.

Possible solutions:
- Pick a random project from the list on each page load. Easy to implement but tricky to test.
- "Project of the day" by cycling through the project list (day_of_year % number_of_projects). Easy to implement, testing possible.
- A manually picked top project (or list of projects to cylcle through). Requires extra db and ui work. Can be tested.
- ... ?

As a quick solution, I'd go for "project of the day".
