We need to improve in this area. * You say that all lines in the source browser are the same color. This could be due to Pygments not being installed correctly. Do you have a "Syntax Highlighting" tab on the prefs page (/prefs/pygments)? It could also be due to the mimetype on a file being set to text/plain. The mimetype should be autodiscovered for common file extensions if not set on the file. * I agree that we should offer more flexibility for users to customize the mainnav. This will be improved in #636. * The roadmap needs a Bootstrap template, which is why it is not visually appealing. Some would say that the Roadmap is replaced by the Dashboard, but I think we should make the Roadmap usable for those that choose to use it. https://issues.apache.org/bloodhound/ticket/636
