Aaaargh, that page is impossible to read. I would recommend using width:600px;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto; for the div#base and definitely kill that center text-align with a huge cannon.
Took me a while to understand that this is a Linux library to "talk to iOS stuff"
It is distracting how your comment has framed discussion as, "this is ugly or unoptimized for the target audience because x." What I was hoping to read here is a discussion about how this library improves (or falls short of improving) upon attempts made to build open libraries to talk to iDevices in the past.
There is a place for aesthetic critique. I would rather see this project focus on the cool work they are clearly doing, and forget about the margins.
Yes and no. I agree that pages like this don't really need much prettifying, but center aligning text and expanding it to page width really does make it unreadable in this instance.
