I'm happy with this layout, as it fixes many of the type size and
cross-browser issues we have, and the actual aesthetics can be changed
easily later. (More easily than with the existing layout, in fact.)
Barring last-minute additions, I'm going to go ahead figuring how to get
this integrated.

okay, I might be late, but I think this can be figured out later, anyways. Two points:
1. I like the current bright red for the headings, it really says in an unobstrusive way "hello, i am a heading!"
2. I think the pages and section names on the navigation left should differ in some way so that the organization is easier to understand. I guess just making the page names not bold or smaller might be the right thing. Maybe also the underlines make the text bulky. After all it is a navigation, it should be expected that there are links - no need to mark them as such by underlining.
overall I like it, yet a little bit too plant-y and too few fred-y, but whatever :)
cheers

ps: did you receive that new logo mockup from joerg or so? it looked pretty slick

These are easy enough to fix:

whatever :)
The plant images are all from Matt's publically available photos. I did
start out with dragonfly images, but it was overkill, visually. I didn't
want it to look like one of those planet*.com sites.
pretty slick
I did - it looks neat. (very Aqua/iMacish) We have yet to get release
from the artist. However, it can always come in later, thanks to css.
