I'm going to try to take a look at it. Probably within the next week,
I'll have something. It's probably going to be some sort of natural
continuation of the current design.

Yes, I've said many times before that if you have patches for the
website that you are sure won't break stuff, you can just commit, and
send me a mail, and I'll update it. I'm almost always online, so it
won't be long, and it's very little work for me.

That's a separate issue from changing the design, really. Someone here
on the list had an XSL based solution for that, I think, but I don't
remember what happened to it...

Okay!
Means this also we will use the xml source for the website?

P.S.
Discard my subjectless E-mail that should be titled "fresh new look".

Great, the website design evolves also.

Mmmm, a fresh new look ...
The design of http://www.conglomerate.org may look old,
but I like the "different look" of the site.
Anyway, if someone feels the itch go ahead.
More important is how we can scale out the number of uploaders
to the website. Joakim, how can we help you?
Would it help if we send a private message
when "conglomerate-web" has changed?
Something related:
Can we continue with the XML approche for the website?
That means dropping the PHP approche.
