Thank you for working on this. My suggestins:

* Drop the "Get Fedora" title.
* Move the links to the side. Split it up into places vs projects.
* Split the screen below into news and development.
* Search should be available on top.

There is a html plugin for moinmoin which does that. I think Seth agreed 
to enable it in the site. Go ahead and use it if the wiki markup is a 
constraint.
