It's pretty fugly compared to the .de page, though. IMHO. Which is why I didn't mention it in my previous post. :)
have you ever checked the new version, online since just a few days?
It's a complete rewrite of the portal, using own software featuring multi-language and multi-project pages and automatic language detection. All project portals are served by the same scripts, which makes it now easy to maintain all projects and language (project name, title, description, logos ect.)

I guess, he _is_ speaking about the new design ;-) I wouldn't call it "fugly", but it isn't very "beautiful" too. Some critical remarks: - Don't use flags! States and languages do not correspond, that's exactly the point of these portals. Combining the flag of the Swiss Confederation and of the Federal Republic of Germany doesn't create anything appropiate to represent the German language. - The "expand" links for the banner don't work for me. - Rearrange the language boxes. It looks messy this way. Some kind of. And I don't like the dotted borders.
