Errr...  Not so.  Admittedly, this was posted just a few days ago, but 
people are working on CSS-izing the FreeBSD.org web site:

Elsewhere on this thread there has been some talk about organizing a 
design competition to see who can come up with the best concept for the 
site.  Strikes me that a good way to do that would be along the lines of 
this competition to redesign the W3.org site:

     http://w3mix.web-graphics.com/entries.php

ie. take the existing content and write a style sheet to present it in 
the best possible way.

	Cheers,
