Yep saw that--fixed and copied to main site.
You might want to pull from GIT so that your copy is up to date
before
committing anything else. :-)
I did--the problem was that the git directory is not my working directory (basically, I was too lazy to fix the symlink for my local Apache server to point to the new location). I need to do something about that . . . but not tonight. ;)

Hi,
I'm so sorry to say this, but I do not find that the new website design honors the work that has been done to renew the TDEUI. Don't take it personally, but I almost prefer the old website. The colors were brighter.
For the various graphic work I did here, I provided tens and tens of variants, to make sure that it was right for everyone, but this website popped out, without any improvements before going to production. I asked for a preview with a provided graphic gradient, and you didn't even answered at all.
1.First of all, it really has to grow to follow the browser's window size, without stopping at a definite place, leaving the user think that it is a bug. And in the left-top and right directions.
2.Also, the TDE logo position and the title vertical alignment does not follow the new TDEUI that much, leaving the title on the line of the ribbon, instead of well centered between the top of the page and the ribbon.
3.Then, there is something just wrong with the strong contrast created with the top images and the rest of the site. If the text was in kind of rounded rectangle, filled with white, on a blue background, it would fit much better and look smoother too. Just like the new TDEUI.
4.If the font could be forced to be something like Arial, it would be much better, because it looks strange on browsers set to display text in Times New Roman.
It will be better, but it needs some polish.
Just my 2 cents... -Alexandre
The somewhat deployment was partially due to technical reasons. The old FOSWiki was loading down the Web server too heavily and I needed to fix that ASAP. Additionally, we were starting to get into a "split-head" scenario with two websites (production and the vastly different development) that had to be kept in sync; much longer and we would have had a lot of work to do porting newly-added content from the old site to the new site.
If you like, think of the current site as a beta. I can give you access to the development site and I am fairly confident we can polish it up the rest of the way for R14 release--at least I now have the much-needed ability to add new content to the site again.
Thanks!

Whoops, that should read "sudden deployment" above. Spell check. :-)
