I think it's almost perfect. (Note that with us, QA people, you
never get better than that :D)
With this out of way, some other little things come out. (I
think we're getting little bit OT-spammy, the rest of this
mail tries to address that as well):
* Reference to the Google mailing list does not make it clear
how to register there, or give link to Howto page. I'm
assuming there is similar interface as for this list?
* Cosmetic, but: the header logo is exactly touching the top
of the window.

* `/` is automatically redirected to `/cgi-bin/what_is`.
I understand that you want to have the page in P* (which
is great approach) and it might not yet support proper
routing, but this can cause unnecessary pain in future:
everyone (including bots) will bookmark this URL so once
you change it to a nicer form (either by implementing
proper routing or changing structure of the page), everyone
will get 404s or you will need to keep this URI and send
3xx's for some time.
So if possible, I'd redirect at least `/` in some
transparent manner, i.e. serve identical content as for
`/cgi-bin/what_is`.
* Also I think it's kind of unwritten standard to have the
main logo link to the page home, i.e. `/`.
* I just randomly spotted a typo at `/cgi-bin/how_to_run` --
s/favourute/favourite/
I see you are using Github for the code and issue tracking.
Many projects do this for the documentation as well, and even
for main presentation page or other related projects, as
separate parallel repos. I think this approach makes it way
easier to contribute on various levels.
Thanks,
