My main concerns are - genericity - corporo-whore-ness - (the logo is pretty much a placeholder; I'm not pushing that over any others without approval)
Things I like: - palette. IMO it's clean, not too dull, and faithful to the original. - Big Words. I think every site should have a one-sentence introduction (perhaps I have a short attention span). - navigation at the top. One reason for this is that it makes it very easy to maintain consistency over multiple subsites (e.g. main, docs, forum, etc): you just shove it in at the top.
