This is a lot more readable and approachable - nice work! Cool to see that the designers managed to stick to the green template while making it work for a bunch of different content types. Thanks for the update!

I think it has too much empty space ...
Yeah, there's a lot of whitespace - I'm not the biggest fan of all that padding on the blog / archive dates template, or the L-R padding on the home page, but I hear "more space" is all the rage :)

Mostly I noticed the difference in the Docs. The elements are called out more explicitly and it's easier to find things on the docs, which have considerably less whitespace: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/intro/tutorial01/

Yes, even I thought the same. I hate that the home page has a lot of content that I have to scroll down to view (at 1440x900 resolution).

Edit: Added an illustration

> whitespace wastage

there is no such thing. Think more whitespace equals more focus around the content and less clutter.
