What I mean by this.  Point a graphics desiger at a Maven site - make this
site look great with CSS.  I think you'll find that the graphic designer is
going to request so many changes to structure it would almost be easier for
an organization to just fork and customize the site plugin rather than deal
with what is produced.    I would agree that Maven provides a reasonable
amount of flexibility, but I guess I have yet to see a Maven site that
doesn't look like a Maven site.  Maybe we need a site that customizes the
CSS to show people what is possible.  A Zen Garden for Maven.
