I'm assuming all these graphics are placeholders and not the final product?
Also, there seems to be a few problems with the code, they're overly simple mistakes (make sure to test perhaps?)
In Apps/page.py at 536 you actually use the character for a copyright symbol. This is improper, W3 Schools has a few really great tutorials for web design for beginners [1].
In Apps/page.py at 144 you improperly call the configuration parser, specifically you are calling an object directly. How did this work in your test environment exactly? It doesn't quite conform to the current Python version, or how the module was designed [2].
In Apps/page.py at 257 you area also using the config parser (again, improperly since you never even attempted to load a configuration before using its values [3], odd, now sure how that worked in testing either).
I stopped attempting to run the code after this point, because it appears that it is beyond repair, unusable and and simply does not conform to any known standard of writing code.
I'm afraid this email will not reach you in time to prevent you from making additional mistakes, but perhaps when you get the internet back again you can utilize the few links I've included in this email to develop properly. If this email seems condescending in anyway, it's probably because it is. I'm actually a little distressed that a completely non-working model has been submitted publicly to the list as an actual response to the need for a new site. It also appears that sometime between now and March 1st of last year, all the existing discussion appears to have been thrown out. I don't recall there being a discussion on the list about /this/ particular direction with the site (in terms of extreme brokenness, it was expected that something functional would be designed).
It does appear however that a new group of people will have to be put together in order to develop the new site, I'm expecting though that because you are "Artwork SIG Lead" [4] you will be personally biased against the idea of another submission.
I suppose this can now conclude my stance on this submission of "artwork" to the list and its attempt to be accepted by the list.

Hello,
I've been in silence a long time so far because it is very difficult for me to have real Internet access. However, I've kept myself working for CentOS and now, I publish what I've been doing for you to evaluate and propose considerations. I know the wiki is not the best place to post this information, but it is the only one I have access to (because restrictions on my side, not yours). Excuse me for that.

That's it for now. I'll try to download the mailing list archives to read your comments and when possible replay them.
Thank you very much for all the work you do. I'll try to be back as soon as possible.
