Re: Suggestion - Minor changes to main page for now



	Hi!

 First of all - please be patient with us. We are working on this

 Thanks for the notice, please keep it in your additional mails so noone
forgets about it. Also, you are invited to follow through the web
archive of the list just in case: <http://lists.debian.org/debian-www/>

 From what I understood most of them only change minor bits just like
your suggestion. Otherwise I agree with you, they won't be pratcial to
adopt. E.g. I started with getting Kalle's propsal to work on
<http://www.deb.at/index.en.html>

 It is an interesting approach and looks sweet, though there are some
things that itch me a bit: The blue text and the red headlines are a bit
too much, and personally I dislike dotted links instead of clearly
underlined.

 These are my first impressions though.

 See Kalle's proposal, it doesn't have too deep changes and it comes
with a patch that makes it clear what needs to get changed (and is
already changed on the above site).

 Thanks!
