You apparently didn't pay very much attention to the design because yes,
that is the same design. We used the old website chrome (as has been
discussed publicly in multiple places, not that it seems to matter to
anyone here) rather than replace it at this time, but it is the same
design. Yes we have been trying to get this design out since before F12
came out.

That's why we kept the old website chrome for now. I'd like to replace
it in time for F13.
