My main question is about the styling + logo. We have a logo for QEMU,
but neither the old website nor your new website use it.

   http://wiki.qemu.org/Logo

It has a quite distinct black + orange colourscheme, which IMHO doesn't
fit with the greenish colour scheme you've used here.

Do we still like that logo ? If so, we should use it, and align the
website colour scheme with that logo colourscheme, so we have a consistent
brand style.

Regards,
Daniel
