Inspired by the recent developments, and Sebastiaan Koppe's version [1] specifically, I gave it a go, too:

It's not as radical as other approaches. I didn't start from scratch, but tried to improve on what's there. Almost everything stayed in its place. The only thing that moved significantly is the search box. And I'm not sure about the new spot; may be better to put it above #content again.

I worked mostly on the general appearance, not on the content, not on the navigation hierarchy, not on styling specific pages. I did very minor adjustments to the homepage, though. Like fixing the grammar of the slogan ;) And I stole Sebastiaan's tables, as can be seen on property.html, for example.

I tried to keep all functionality, not cutting things for the sake of looking clean. I did kill two little details though: * "D 2.066.1" in the menu -- What's the point of that linking to the home page? Maybe bring it back as "Home".
* the GitHub ribbon on download.html -- Because I hate it.

The site supposed to scale nicely with window size and font size. E.g., try resizing the window, or pressing Ctrl++ until the layout switches to 'mobile' (go back to default with Ctrl+0).

On that note, I changed the main font size to 1em, period. That's a thing I feel kinda strongly about. It's just the right thing to do (TM) in my opinion.

I have not been a good committer, so there's lots of cleanup to do. But aside from that, this is supposed to mergeable as it is.

Destroy.

it looks better than the current one however when i expand the menus, the sub menus opened don't feel like they are a part of (ie.) d reference menu or community menu. guess making it clear would be better.

one question for everyone: do we really need 3-col web site?
