Please let me know your thoughts. I apologize for not making this
public earlier, but I wanted to make sure Anand and Branko were happy
with the changes before putting it out to the public. I think we like
the general look so far.
For the record, this is really only a style change. I'd like to work
on the structure and content more, but wanted to get this out first.
Cheers,
Justin

Although I will probably inevitably end up sounding like a fascist, I
don't think a public vote should be the principal decision-making

takes a look at the work-in-progress stuff and contribute their ideas.
We've actually just started working on this the other day.

I don't understand why your mockup is far less complete than mine...
...we all have real lives, so we couldn't get our schedules synced.
Ahh the asynchronicity of unreal life.

CHANGES
Site Template
* one snake, please — I personally like this one best
* transparent favicon and snake logo
* SEARCH
* first tab-index
* support for OpenSearch (see upper right of *my view* above)
* Goog custom search across webpy.org, launchpad& github
* `universal edit button` (see tooltip in *my view* above)
* one, obvious home link (doubles as hCard for the web.py organization)
* breadcrumbs will logically fit between top `web.py` and `<h1>`
* if any URIs actually descend multiple levels of hierarchy [???]
* HTML5 (i.e.<header>,<article>,<nav>,<footer>)
* document structure places `article` content before `nav`igational elements
* simplified navigation
* changelog has nothing to do with "Getting" which leaves only `Download`
* hence change of heading from `Get` to `Use`
* merge `download` into `install`
* move deployment information from `install` to `deploy`
* break setup into parts and merge with `deploy` and elsewhere
* `learn` section is more focused
* quote moved to footer revealing whitespace and collapsing header
* Aaron and Anand's info provided as hCards (as `vcard.agent`s of web.py)
* Anand presented with<address> to designate *main author*
* table of contents
* `rel-license`d page under a CC0 [critical change – comments?]
* designed to formalize the Public Domain dedication universally
* syntax highlighting
* jQuery auto-inserts `back to top ↑` before each h2
Abouthttp://webpy.org/about?template_root=/min
*<title> reads only "web.py"
* single hAtom status feed entry represents most recent version semantically
* hAtom to Atom transliteration provides feed (see *my view* above)
* Anand's hCard used heuristically to imply hAtom feed author
* semantically: Anand is an author/agent of web.py who posted version 0.33
* split testimonials into `project that use web.py` and `people that use web.py`
* each contains an hCard — `org`s for projects and `people` for people
* began sourcing each quote
* linking to author's identity where possible
* overall sanitization of section
Installationhttp://webpy.org/installation?template_root=/min
* content restructure and merge with
* terminal snippets are copy/pasteable
* CSS used to insert shell indicator
* trailing newline to ensure sending of entire sequence of commands
History of
Installationhttp://webpy.org/installation?m=history&template_root=/min
* hAtom feed
Deploymenthttp://webpy.org/installation?template_root=/min
* untouched merge..
TODO

So it looks like you're really focusing on color. I imagined the
redesign would incorporate more discussion in the areas of information
architecture and content — semantics, typography, accessibility,
usability.
As it should. I have some ideas about that as well, but since this
started out a bit chaotic, we'll try to get this thing going, and
change stuff as we go.
That said, I don't understand why your mockup is far less complete
than mine (regardless of perceived quality) given I spent a couple of
hours one evening (content modifications included), had my hands tied
to the existing HTML structure, and your redesign has been in the
pipeline for.. longer.
So far, Anand's the only guy working on webpy.org. And we all have
real lives, so we couldn't get our schedules synced. We've actually
just started working on this the other day.
Now that I know about this feature of Infogami I feel a strong urge to
take a stab at a lower-level design but the last thing I want to do is
step on toes. Can we discuss some of the finer points of the redesign
in the open?
Sure thing. I don't think anyone would mind. :)

Forgive me if I am stepping on toes, as I am very confused with the
conversation.
I just wanted to say that I don't care for the color scheme much and I
think the header is to big. Maybe 20-30px could be cut from it? However,
I think the main content is laid out nicely.
