The general layout looks good and clean to me. One remark: I'm not a
layout/color specialist, but I wonder if the pages won't lack a bit of
color when the bright yellow block is removed.

Can we please add the link to the issue tracker again in the menu? I'm
not talking about "report a new bug", but 'look at the existing
already reported bugs and feature requests". Something that makes it
easy for me to type in the word "serf"' and get all the serf related
open reports would serve my needs perfectly. :)

Some details:
On the getting.html page: DJ has announced he stops building the
windows binaries so he should be removed from the package maintainers
list:

roadmap.html:
The roadmap table is outdated. In fact, do we really plan to keep this
page up to date during the release process?
