I didn't hear back from you, but saw that you went on to do additional edits.
+
 
+
I wanted to get the list of key documents back on the main page, but you had made so many edits to it that I could't pull up a copy that I could cut and paste back to the main page. I copied your last edit (to put back when I was done) and tried to rollback just the last two edits to get back our list of documents, but apparently the rollback system assumed wrongly that when I rollback your edits that I wanted to roll back all edits to the last edit on that page by someone else. I'm sorry, that was not my intention, only to get back a front page that would allow easy access to the documents without someone having to find that they were now hidden under a cryptic "current events" link (it took me several minutes to find them and I knew what I was looking for). You other contributions are all still there, but the links on the main page that point to them are gone and will need to be redone.

Greg,

If you look at the forums for this site (and create an account) you'll see a private message feature that allows sending of private messages back and forth (without having to post an e-mail address that will instantly be harvested by the damn spammers).
+
 
+
I'm not an IRC user, can't contact you that way at the moment.
+
 
+
I also have something else I should have started doing ab0ut five minutes ago, so I'm not going to be able to get back to you again for a few hours.
+
 
+
My concern is that while you are making some good changes, you have significantly changed the main page from the format that the site owner wanted, and in doing so you have made it hard to find things. Quite simply, the average noob we get here isn't going to click on a "current events" link to find the major articles. They really should be listed on the main page as they were.
+
 
+
I can roll that page back to the point where the article links were all there, but I don't want to undo things that you have done since (and I see that you are still busy making changes). I'm hoping that you'll reconsider and put the pages finished section back on the main page (call it important key articles if you wish rather than pages finished).

Please contact me (Harry Kuhman) by the forum private message feature. You don't seem to have a forum account, at least under this name, so I can't contact you that way. You seem to be making a number of good changes, but the last rather drastic change to the main page has me a bit concerned.

Harry I am in IRC right now at drkludge.  I don't quick get the private message thing.  I'll hang out for awhile in IRC and hack on page converts.  I hope I didn't freak you too much.
+
 
+
Oh and most changes are documented.  For example, please see http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/?title=Main_Page&action=history.

+
I am also the same Dr kludge here http://phpwebsite-comm.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page.  SourceForge sucks right now.  The wiki has problems with Firefox 1.06.  So I was bored and thought I'd lend a hand.  That would also be me here http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GregMorgan. I just can't get enough.
