Pretty good.

No harm in the whatever misquoting. Looks like the race is on for trying
a few website designs and deciding on what next.


Can a note be added onto the blogspot website emphasising the maillist
and listing the other test websites?

Let's see what happens.


10/10 all round for being proactive! I think Linux Format is a good
thing. I was also surprised they've also picked up on the Mandriva ->
Magia fork, and that's only very recently happened. They must work to a
much shorter than 3 months print turn-around...

It's all our (NB: collective our :-) ) group!


Any others wish to jump in on the website design?

I'm going to be doing some tweaks to the one I'm playing with. I guess
the main contest is whether to go 'clean and simple' or to go for
something more 'geekie'. Regardless, hopefully we can avoid whatever new
site getting cluttered and slow.


Next talk (03/11/2010) is going to be websites and a website challenge!

Next event is the Peachy social 20/10/2010:
