-Where did you get that logo? Maybe it's the color but it looks very elegant compared to <http://www.gnu.org>

-I did it myself. Somewhat inspired by another GNU artwork, but completely hand made in the Gimp.
-
-I'm working on a cool Mach logo as well. Inspiration is the old Atari arcade game M.A.C.H. 3. :-)

-What do you feel about the new copyright notice at the bottom of this web?
-
-I'm afraid that I will have to add another page to the edit process to actually enforce this stuff. Perhaps I can combine the old Preview with this copyright assignment, what do you think?
-
-Oh, btw. It seems RMS is right. At least according to Swedish law (as far as I've checked) transfer/assignment of copyright can be made the way he describes. The user has to select a checkbox or press a button to accept the copyright assignment each time. But as long as that is done we don't have to have any other form of "legal contract" between the users and the FSF.

-Good day.

-I am a developer, have some c knowledge, and in perspective hope to be able to make a contribution in Hurd kernel. At the moment I consider myself as a beginner.
-
-My question is about the second exercise.
-
->Implement your own pager. Write a server that synthesizes content on the fly and have a client map the object into its address space and print out the file.
-
-* The second sentence "Write a server that..." is too long and too difficult for me to understand perhaps because English is not my native language. Could you please explain it in a little bit easier phrases?
-* Am I write that in a given context "pager" means just "memory manager"?

-Interesting, for consistency sake I'll think about making your changes you made on the right hand side to the other web WebHome pages. I guess it's not critical that they are identical, but I was trying to keep them identical if possible. I also wanted it to be "light" enough feature wise that it doesn't overpower the page. You've added back a few of the features, so we obviously differ in how important you and I think these features are. That's OK, I'll think about it some more and we'll see what happens.
-
-Oh, I see you added back [[WebTopicList]] and [[WebPreferences]]. I purposely removed [[WebPreferences]] from the lists on the right because it has nothing to do with navigation. I also didn't think that people actually use topic names to navigate. If they do they could search for them. Keeping the number to four items instead of six and keeping the descriptions concise makes a big difference when I view the page.
-
-(goes off to think more...)
-
-and eat... ;-)

--- [[Main/GrantBow]] - 29 Dec 2002
-
-**_Reasons for my change:_**
-
-1. [[WebTopicList]] is a lot quicker than the [[WebIndex]] - brings down the load times and the load of the server
-2. [[WebPreferences]] - users might be curious to see what can be modified. Changes should of course only be made in their home topics, like in %WIKIUSERNAME%. However, the [[WebPreferences]] can serve as an inspiration. Therefore we should perhaps make sure only the [[Main/TWikiAdminGroup]] members can alter the \*Preferences topics.
-3. If you look closely I've also reordered the links. Shorter names first and long ones last, I tried to keep the descriptions brief and in proportional length as well.
-
-I don't know about you, but keeping the number of items to four rather than six doesn't really matter to me. The text is quite small and if it's the space we're after the [[WebStatistics]] does take up more than the navigation links.
