Redesign of Python site

[Jeff Epler]

I don't think the design is that bad.  Here are my thoughts:

MAKE SURE THE DAMNED THING FILLS MY SCREEN, instead of using 80%, or
66%, or 400px, like so many shite websites out there. (yes, I know these
are images)

When this is converted to CSS, a "high contrast" style sheet should be
offered because there are many users who would benefit from it.
Similarly, make sure this site is good for links (text-only) browser
users.

Obviously, the links available directly from the front page need careful
consideration.  I visit python.org 90% of the time for documentation
(though usually through a bookmark to python.org/doc/lib), 5% for PEPs,
5% for links to sf tracker items (using URLs provided in e-mail), and 1%
(oops, I'm up to 101%) to download a new Python release.  My needs are
probably atypical, though.

Why are you calling python2.3.tar.gz a "binary"?  That file contains the
source code to Python, not any binary executable.  Bow to the forces of
marketing and include stupid meaningless pictures and slogans if you must,
but at least keep the page technically correct!
