It's simpler and has less wha on the front page. The top bar thingy gives you a nice and clear menu to find more information and has a search box well visible. You can scan the whole page in a short time which is good. Web page where you get 100 links are useless.=20 How about a pool?...Or better yet, get a lot of CSS goodness and have lots of themes... Or maybe not... *grins evilly* > Front page should list reasons to stay & click further, I think that one does. *shrugs* You cannot please everyone I guess. To be honest, the news section is a bit long. I don't think that the "New Committer" is newsworthy but that's just me. Maybe do a once a month annoucement? > > browser.

No cookie, page still loads hence no bother. --=20 yann@kierun.org -=3D*=3D- www.kierun.= org PGP: 009D 7287 C4A7 FD4F 1680 06E4 F751 7006 9DE2 6318 --YiEDa0DAkWCtVeE4 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFDRTwl91FwBp3iYxgRAmROAJ99VrDrx2LtY0lccC16ccmkBbZXaACfW1uO jfFq+KV9LMOfbJxafw3aTTY= =zZ9/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --YiEDa0DAkWCtVeE4--
