I don't see any difference of how redesigns (http://i.imgur.com/ Eq5kN.png vs http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=http://foxbunny.tumblr.com/post/351166368/webpy-mockup-3rd-version-cleaned-up-white&usg=AFQjCNHTO-AgjhVRju09ClA3FX9ruK044A) have been done. For me both of them have been done privately.
The 1st one looks more semantically clean, with html5 and microformats, and without gradients and Comic-Sans-like title. The only feature I request is code highlight.
