I have applied Guillem's patch and also moved the layout formatting to the recent_list function, added the get_recent_list call to the index.wml page and synced translations. I have tested that this works in English, adding the line: <define-tag frontpage>yes</define-tag> to a news file. I'm currently building the site to see if it works with translations even when they don't include that tag (I said that I think it would work, but now I've changed my mind and I think that the tag is needed in every language). But that's a minor issue and we can care about this later. The most important thing that it's still missing is to handle the date in the recent_list.wml template in the correct way so it is shown in the "calendar sheet". It's hard for me to crawl the Perl code in that file, so help is very welcome. The lines that currently write the HTML of the News start on: https://salsa.debian.org/webmaster-team/webwml/blob/new-homepage/english/template/debian/recent_list.wml#L520 but there is code related to dates, isodates, timestamps etc in other places in the file, that probably can be reused/modified in order to get what we want (translatable date but separating day, month, year). Another thing that it would be nice is to rebase the work in new-homepage branch on top of the current status of the website. This way we could mark the actual news that we want to appear in the homepage. This would also fix the kerning issue in the homepage buster-theme banner.
