Thanks everyone for the overwhelmingly positive feedback. I've committed the new design to 3.2 and 3.3 for now, and it will be live for the 3.3 docs momentarily (3.2 isn't rebuilt at the moment until 3.2.3 final goes out). I'll transplant to 2.7 too, probably after the final release of 2.7.3. I think it would be better to leave 2.7 with the old theme, to keep it visually distinct from the nifty new theme used with the nifty new 3.2 and 3.3 versions. Hmm, -0 here. I'd like more opinions on this from other devs. +1 on keeping the 2.x and 3.x styles separate. I don't really understand the point. If we want to distinguish between 2.x and 3.x, perhaps a lighter difference would suffice.

The point being that 2.x is finished, and the bulk of our effort is now on 3.x. By not changing the 2.x docs we are emphasizing that 3.x is the way to go.
