Hi Curtis,

First of all, thank you for the impressive new design. I really like it!

Technically (@Windows XP SP2 RUS, 1024x768):
Firefox 1.0.7 Rus -- OK
Opera 8.5 Rus -- OK
MSIE 6 Rus -- OK

Some issues to discuss:
1. Why is the gentoo logo changed this way? From (my) designer's point
of view, either an infinity sign or Gentoo 'g' is redundant and
unnecessary.
2. The dark grey table borders at documentation view and print pages are
too 'rough' compared to rather light overall site design.
Could you change them to something more 'airy'?

3. It is, imho, great moment to implement some i18n together with site
redesign. Many of us, i18n teams, have to 'clone' and maintain extensive
community sites just to bypass artificial English-only w.g.o front page
limitation. I think, it is reducing the amount of international Gentoo
newbies. Did you consider to take part in the GLEP10 implementation?

WKR,
