That's what I thought. You are going to wish I never started soon :) ,
because basically there are many other issues to do with the site, some of
It is xooki related though so tell me if you want me to create Jira Issues
For Ivy or if you want be to log them on the xooki site.

1. Output html does not have stylesheet in the code, instead it is hidden 
Inside of the javascript. This has usability and validation problems. The
W3C validator can not see the CSS and so can not validate. Users that have
Disabilities that may want to override some of the CSS or even disable it
Altogether in favour of their own stylesheet can not, because again the 
Stylesheets are hidden away in the Javascript.

2. If Javascript is turned off or blocked then the Ivy site does not appear
At all.

3. templates are uploaded and viewable on the web. 
e.g http://incubator.apache.org/ivy/template.html
(not visable from the menu, but I bet google will show it around)

There are many HTML Validation errors, there are also Symantec errors such
as Using <h1> for headings multiple times down a page.

The above things may not be important to you or to the Ivy project, but I
feel it will hurt the popularity of xooki certainly. As they are happening
On the Ivy site though I guess they could be deemed Ivy issues.

I don't want to burden the ivy list with such stuff, I'd rather you got on
With coding and other stuff so projects like Apache Forrest (who are likely
To adopt Ivy soon) can benefit.

Anyway, I'll send that patch shortly :)
