So I had a couple of ideas...

I kind of like the template set up by the new 404 page:

I don't know if I'm as happy with the moin template I hacked up a few 
weeks back:

This is something I came up with kind of doodling based off of the 404 
page design but I'm not crazy about it:

Maybe a better iteration:

Navbar really needs work, but... :) it's closer to the 404 page design 
with the line along the top of the page.

Any thoughts on any of these options? I need to start hacking on the 
plone css...

Does the explanation of Fedora on the page seem good?

I'm not sure how to expand the - I'm a computer user, I'm a developer, 
why is Fedora for me part. Did you have ideas for that, Karsten?
