Hi all.

Glad to see things are moving. I seriously think we should publish the
new website in sync with the qgis2 release. Here my thoughts:
* KISS is still the best approach
* we should split website and documentation, as the two have little in
common
* for the documentation, IMHO plain sphinx styles are just fine, no
need to waste time in designing more complex stuff
* for the website, I think using a sphinx theming approach is fine; I
do not like ad hoc solutions, and I prefer to stick with shared
solutions; so I would use
http://ryan-roemer.github.io/sphinx-bootstrap-theme
adding upstream what we need (lang switch, better arrangement of site
and page menus, footer, what else?)
* then it's just a matter of bootstrap tuning, and css design (we do
not need anything fancy, plain simple stuff is best)
I'd be happy to contribute to the effort for a shared solution.

All the best.
