At present I find the sword website painfull to navigate.

While it seems to be used a lot, mixing menu structure items over multiple 
places is bad. I would favor a menu on the left hand site that will fold 
out where needed.

On the top a navigation indicator to tell you the path you took to the
current page. (I must admit my own pages are lacking those.)

And for absolute readability for a website have a look at 
http://mkdoc.com/ as it has a lot of good ideas about building acccessable 
websites.
