The gimmick is buggy (when you collapse then expand it in the middle,
and then scroll up, the sidebar content disappears after scrolling),
and in the end quite confusing.

Also I think there should be some jquery animation when
collapsing/expanding.

I think the "New in version..." and "Changed in version..." styles
stand out in the wrong kind of way (as in "drawn by a 8-year old with
a pen and ruler", perhaps). Perhaps you want some coloured background
instead? (or, better, an icon - by the way, warnings also scream for an
icon IMO)

Otherwise, not sure what problem this new theme solves, but it looks ok.

Antoine.
