Excellent grid and hiearchy. The following are my nits, I don't expect
them to be mocked up, but please incorporate them when you're doing
the actual design:

Please center the layout, it feels unbalanced to me when flush left. I
venture that anybody visiting this site will have at least 1024
screens. I know that 800 is the current standard width because quite a
few people still run 800x600, but I would be very surprised if anybody
 interested in python web development were running a screen that
small. I'd say you can safely go up to 990px if you need the space
(which your layout really doesn't).

The line height on the body copy is too high and is breaking up the
text, please drop it to betweeen 1.2em and 1.3 em. The current spacing
is fine on the sidebars.

I'd like to see the download box changed:
+-----------------------+
| DOWNLOAD           || |
|--------------------\/-|
| Turbogears 0.8a6      |   <- 1.3 em or so
| Released Dec 26, 2005 |   <- .8 em or so, it should fit under the 'Turbogears'
|  * Validation Bugfixes|
|  * OtherFeatures      |
|  * OtherFeatures2     |
+-----------------------+

As you can see from my amazing ascii art drawing, I think you should
drop the 'now' so that it reads 'Download Turbogears 0.8a6'. The
bullets display the key features of the release. I feel the redundant
download and upgrade links at the bottom don't add anything and that
people know to click the download header or the product name to get
download or upgrade info.

Now to design a release page and a decent start page. ;]
