I'm with Werner. Please stay as much to plain Sphinx and Bootstrap as 
possible. In that way we keep stuff easily translatable.

A few weeks/months(?) ago I created a newer frontpage, based on some 
comments from people here on the list:

http://docs.qgis.org/2.0/playground/en/index.html

At that time, people asked to remove the menu (which indeed are at this 
moment not translatable because they are part of the layout templates).
In that version I used some javascript and some 
rest-structure-conventions to create the 3 blocks you see there.

While I like the inasafe template/theme, I'm personally in favor of the 
clean Sphinx/Bootstrap only version...
It maybe takes some extra time to create the structure but after that it 
is really easy translatable via the normal tool chain.

If the majority wants to have menu's or the inasafe theme, we have to do 
some work to translate the templates make the buildscripts aware of the 
translated templates.

Richard
