new KDE wiki designs

http://www.sayakbanerjee.com/2012/07/25/kde-wikis-neverland/

"Yesterday after a long head banging session with Ingo Malchow, we’re
happy to release the first version of the Neverland UI for KDE Wikis
(userbase.kde.org, techbase.kde.org and community.kde.org).... Ingo also
updated UserBase to the latest MediaWiki release. So we now have a more
solid website with our latest and greatest theme."

You might remember Ingo's case study of how KDE makes their wikis look
and feel nice:

Ingo, we'd welcome any insights on your recent work and links to the
themes. :-)

Hehe, thanks you are still watching this. Sayak already states it
quite good in his blog, neverland is a project that is supposed to
give a corporate identity to all of our KDE sites (which are over 80,
and several different CMS, along with mediawiki).
How we came along with the base idea was rather simple, our designer
made a mockup, based on the bootstrap css framework. We played with
several different dummy html files to decide upon certain use cases.
Well, and then we started to implement the final CMS theme versions,
along with it a phpbb version for forum.kde.org , one for our own
webapp based on the yii php framework, one for bugzilla on
bugs.kde.org and so on. And now the mediawiki version.
