19 A bit shorter would be to group the Author/Editor/Translator/... so you only
20 display that noun just once instead of at every e-mail address.

31 If you're talking about the structure of the website, that's one part that
32 still needs a lot of discussion. I have a proposal at
33 http://dev.gentoo.org/~swift/www-redesign/structure.txt.

39 Backporting the new code to XSL isn't difficult, but continuously doing this
40 might get difficult if the code changes too much. Ideally, once the code is
41 finished, we should focus on the new XSLT code so that every additional
42 layout change happens in the XSL.
