Hello,
  Thanks for the feedback Vincent.  As Gustavo noted, I basically took the 
images provided by Marina and did what had to be done at the html level and 
cleaned up the text a bit here and there.  I think the question that comes to 
my mind is where the community would like the site to be when e17 rolls out 
(assuming thats sometime in the not too distant future - sorry, have not kept 
up with discussions regarding any formal releases).  If folks would like to 
send me line item fixes (ie documentation page - change “some text” to, some 
link to, etc), I can work them into a spreadsheet and get them taken care of.   
If there is agreement amongst the community that the consistency of the pages 
warrants some changes (ie, whether docs page aligns top, about pages look more 
like a two column page, etc), please advise what those should be and I can 
change  them as needed.

 I do have some time to work on the site, and plan on being around a while so 
can help on an as needed basis (direct email works best if you need to get my 
attention).  I should note that its looking like I may be moving soon, and of 
course that will consume much time, but will not be a permanent disappearing 
act.  

Thanks again,
Jess
