Download and Usage
Download -
2009.12.5 is the latest version with substantial improvements and bug fixes. There is also the new all-in-one bundle for testing and tryouts. No setup is required, just download, extract, and run wikiserver.py. Configuration - Configuration options can be set to change theme's look and behavior, they are described in the readme file.
Customization - Custom CSS files can be created for customizing theme's appearance, more details in the readme file.
Sidebar - You can have the sidebar by creating a SideBar page. You can also use the ChildPages macro to have a dynamic menu.
If you need a long sidebar you have to either increase the min height of div.wrapper, or decrease the max height of the sidebar so that a vertical bar is displayed for long content. More details here.
Support and Development
Solenoid theme is hosted at Launchpad which provides bug tracking, questions and translation system, download files, and source code repository. There are wiki-based questions and bug reports, but the recommended way now is using Launchpad. You can also help developing this theme by testing and giving feedback about the development version. Thanks to all contributors!

JeroenMaris - I've upgraded to MoinMoin 1.9.0 and Solenoid 2009.12.5 and it works awesome. The theme is perfect now. Comment toggling works, no sidebar, vimperator, new actions menu, everything. I'm extremely happy with it. Thanks Renato, for maintaining it and spending time on bug reports, etcetera.
