Here is what I came up with. I merged it with the text of the existing 
overview.html (from there I just dropped the two sentences about PG and 
jEdit).

Feel free to drop, move, or modify anything you want (e.g., the example 
session could be on a separate page).

Your paper is structured (naturally) as a paper, but for the corresponding webpage I would delete the abstract and most of the introductory material. I wouldn't actually state that Isabelle/jEdit is awesome (such judgements are always up to the reader), but simply outline what the document model is, and how it differs from approaches used in other systems.
