A lot of these mockups are good, but I have a couple comments. I'd like to see more "interesting" grid layout. Django comes from the world of newpapers. I think that should be honored with an power 12/16 column layout. I'm seeing something like "Power Grid" from http://designshack.net/articles/lay

Lovely to see fresh talent and energy applied to a long-stalled issue. :) I think Giovanni's proposal has a strong, simple page structure, and it does a good job of IA for our varied audience. Putting on my BDesignerFL hat, let's use that as a starting point. Let's set aside the issue of restyl
