this looks just great to me. I like it a lot, especially compared to the 
old design. ;)

One more suggestion (since you asked for it): Can we add a short 
paragraph at the bottom of the starting page, with a heading like "Where 
do I go from here?" or "How should I start?". It could list some of the 
links in the menus above, but embed them in free text:

How do I start using SCons?
===================

Please <download a recent version> and install it as described in <???>. 
You should then be able to call the "scons" command in a terminal of 
your choice. Start reading the <UserGuide> and try out some of the 
examples in the first chapters, just to get a feel for the way SCons 
handles build processes. For the more technical questions, you can 
either refer to our rather extensive <ManPage> ("man scons" under 
posix-like systems), or ask questions on our <User Mailing List>.
We also have a <Wiki> with lots of <coding examples> and other 
guidelines, e.g. about how to <contribute to the project> or how to 
<write new Builders and Tools>.




Best regards,

Dirk
