Ken , recently, did a survey among teams and collected some bits of
information, which i think can be put on Teams page.
I proposed to change this page to be more informative, concerning
team's own visions and goals, not just a few words.
The reason for giving more information is to attract more developers.

For instance:
release 4
	Produce Squeak release 4 (cleanly MIT-licensed)

there is no any word, how people could participate, or help or get on board.

or:
vm 	Maintains the Squeak virtual machine.  http://www.squeakvm.org/

again, very brief and no any evidence, if there is help is needed, how
team organized, does it have any outstanding task(s)/goals which may
require some help/contribution etc etc.

Same for SOB - if you put a simple link - this is simplest way to draw
visitor's attention to somewhere else.
While our intent is on contrary - give visitor an enough material on a
single page, so he can see an overall image of community goals &
activities, up to the point that he could say to himself: hey, i'd
like to join this team - so i will click here and write a mail :)
