I think it looks good. It certainly looks a lot better than
wwwdevel.postgresql.org, but I think that one has broken link(s) to
stylesheets ATM.
A few smallish things I've noticed (not with this change in particular,
more in general about the new site):
*) It should be 'the worlds most advanced open source database', right?
(the 'the' is missing) (top of the page)
*) Would it be possible to add a "Home" item to the menubar. I know you
can click the logo to get there, but you'd be surprised to see how many
users wouldn't even think of trying that.
*) Is the "About" tab perhaps misnamed? The content looks more like
"Overview" or "General info" or something? There is a lot of good stuff
under there that I wouldn't expectu nder "About", and there's probably
more stuff scheduled to go there?
*) It would be nice to have a RSS tag so make it show up for live
bookmarks in Firefox (<link rel="alternate" title="postgresql news"
href="/news.rss" type="application/rss+xml"> tag in <head> if you didn't
already know about it)
Since I haven't said it earlier, let me repeat that I think the new site
design looks really good. Certainly a great step forward :-)
