1 Hi aaron, good to see you back. I hope I didn't hack up your work to
2 bad, I was mainly just trying to give some ideas on possible layout for
3 the pages that swift listed in his initial layout to the mailing list.
4 I leave all design in your hands. I'm mainly interested in the xsl/xml
5 stuff anyway. I have the gorg sever installed and running so I can do
6 initial testing on the xsl/xml and I'm just waiting for swift to make
7 final decisions on your work so I can start on the backend stuff.

9 I also thought of using google as a search engine. A search
10 functionality is one of the major things that gentoo.org is missing
11 IMO. I know implementing it natively would be more work than others are
12 willing/able to do and google is a ready made and free resource we
13 should take advantage of. Swift is there someone other than you that
14 needs to be included in that decision? Can you talk to them about this
15 and let us know? The search box is major real estate on that column and
16 a decision should be made ASAP.

18 As to the CSS tags. I was reusing the style sheet for all the different
19 layouts so I just made up tag names to fit it in. Sorry if it got a
20 little confusing.
