Some quick remarks:

- First of all: who are why addressing with this ? Users or developers ? 
The following remarks assume users.

- The first title reads "A mature mapping suite". I'm not sure I would 
advertise GRASS first and foremost for mapping. I'd rather present it as
"A mature spatial analysis suite" or something similar.

- Maybe an extract of the "GRASS GIS capabilities" on 
https://grass.osgeo.org/documentation/general-overview/ would be more 
important than the interoperability and development information. I think 
people should first get a vision of what GRASS GIS actually does before 
thinking about how interoperable it is...

- Paragraphs could possibly be rearranged to create a drilling down from 
the most important general info to more specific info. I would say that 
for first contact with users the most important elements are: what is 
it/what does it do ? who uses it ? On what OS's does it run ? Is there 
documentation ? Is there a community ? Is it "certified" (I agree that 
the fact that it is an OSGeo project needs to be prominently present) ?  ...

- I don't think we should adapt our logos to the OSGeo color scheme. 
Those are two different branding efforts. Not sure one has to fit into 
the other.

That's all for now, especially since I will not have time to work on 
this in the near future... ;-)
