I think the left menu on the current site is of limited value 
too. It is really hard to find what I'm actually looking for. 
(The organization is weird. To me, "D reference" and "standard 
library" ought to be the same, for example, and why is bug 
tracker under community?)

I'd prefer to simplify it to like 5 menu items, each of which 
leads to a new page that can further break it down, using the 
whole screen to lay it out.

Really, one of my biggest worries with dlang.org isn't the color 
scheme, but rather I feel like everything is cramped and content 
takes a back seat to cramming it all in. That's not to say we 
need infinite whitespace like so many new sites, I just don't 
think everything needs to be on every page.
