Comment (by audrasjb):

 Great! Thanks @estelaris and everyone who worked on this! 😃

 I took a look on the proposal and here is what I noted on my side:

 == Header and Main navigation

 - Shouldn't we use the official WordPress font/style for the upper right
 "WordPress" text + logo?
 - The image banner is pretty big, in my opinion, it would be nice to
 reduce it a little (but that's just a personal thought)
 - More importantly, the colors used doesn't meet accessibility guidelines:
 [https://www.joedolson.com/tools/color-
 contrast.php?type=hex&color=%23ffffff&color2=%2387BA22&alpha=1 "#87BA22 /
 #fff"]
 - We'll need styles for navigation items hover/focus (must be something
 else than just color change)
 - I’m still unable to understand why we need to put 5.5 above WordPress in
 the title, but that was already the case with 5.4 and 5.3 ;)

 == Editorial sections

 what's the idea to manage column’s content?
 - "Dynamically" via CSS so columns auto-adapt themselves according to
 their content. Pros: columns will always have quite the same height on all
 languages. Cons: we can't ensure it will looks like that everywhere (for
 example the text "As of right now, you're finally done." will probably
 appear on the second column in many cases)

 The "Highlights from block editor" section, doesn't use the good bullet
 style (according to the rest of the page). It shouldn't be "disc" but the
 "dot" used in the accessibility section as "disc" appear to be used for
 level two items (like in "Other changes for developers" section".

 We'll need to add links styles to section’s content. At least two cases:
 links in regular sections (normal + focus/hover styles) and links
 contained in the green "For developers" box (normal + hover/focus styles).
