Hi; I too think that it is a bit dry in content at the moment. Would I be able to suggest that we replace the "Special Event" space with the listing of the IP Groups so we could look more involved in the community? Just my two cents as EIC.

The previous homepage included the listing of subject categories which provided visitors with a strong indication that we were content oriented and, the range of content available. I think we should make a real effort with the home page to clearly reflect the underlying content... and probably should quickly move to including promotion of our featured IP. david potter On Sat, 3 Jun 2000, David Murdoch wrote: > On Sat, 3 Jun 2000, David L.
