To me that doesn't hold water. We're not designing a site where  
people have to consume large amounts of information (unless there's a  
trac re-design planned here as well), but a site to introduce people  
to and to promote Adium. Do you honestly have problems with the  
widths of those sites I listed? Do you even consciously notice a well  
done fixed width design (as opposed to some of those obnoxious fixed- 
width blog templates)?
