Take your time. I've noticed some changes indeed.
Alignment on main page: changed and fixed,
Titling: changed and *not* fixed

http://wwwredesign.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=4
The 3 title levels are still inconsistent:
"4. Preparing the Disks" (OK)
"4.a. Introduction to Block Devices" (looks like normal text)
"Block Devices" (bolder, coloured, w/ coloured background)

Whatever colour, as long as it's readable. Maybe <ti> could also be more 
readable than they are at the moment.

Outdated translation warnings do not seem to work:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/fr/xml-guide.xml
http://wwwredesign.gentoo.org/doc/fr/xml-guide.xml

Links to GWN RSS feeds are not properly displayed:

Very bad idea, at least the address is.
docs-team is an alias that should only be used by bugzilla to notify GDP 
members. GDP is not going to maintain the site itself, GDP definitely does not 
want to be mailed about any issues outside of /doc/*
Use an appropriate address or none at all.
FYI, some of us probably move mails to docs-team that do not come from 
bugzilla straight to /dev/null. At least I do :)

Doing important changes when some (many?) guys are less available or away for 
holidays might not be a very good idea.
