[ocaml-infra] Feedback on the ocaml.org redesign and logo

[Hongbo Zhang]

Hi Amir,
   Thanks for your hard work!
   I have a naive suggestion,   I prefer the original syntax coloring
for code  to the new one.

We do still have a lot of pieces to complete and Philippe has been collating a list of issues we need to deal with on the tracker [1].  It would be great if we can get your input on these and work out a plan to move the design over.  I'd really like to  get this done over the next couple of weeks.

I'm expecting that we generate the markdown as we did for our fork and archive the current source files.  There is also the URL structure as I've moved many things into subfolders based on the navigation menu.  The URLs are based on this folder structure, which I hope makes it easier for people to mentally map the repo contents to the live site.  Philipe's also added an 'edit this page' link in the footer, which makes it easier for people to contribute quick fixes (it was something many people asked for and it works well but still needs some tweaks ).

I'm specifically interested in getting feedback on (1) the second iteration of the OCaml Logo and (2) the new design for ocaml.org.  See the blog post for more information.  We're tracking feedback via issues [2] and there are some known issues already listed there.
