Kunsheng, you will also need to consider the use of the non-standard port 
number. Many users will not understand it, and many others will not have a 
firewall configuration that will permit it. Can you get port 80 on a subdomain 
somewhere?

You've probably found it by now, but the project name and name of copyright 
holder are in /html/project/project.inc 
the news items are in /html/project/project_news.inc
Here is some doc on the subject:

Have you got any moderators in mind for your message boards?
How much work will you have available, and for how long?
You will also want to list recommended minimum host configuration. How much 
memory and disk space is your project typically going to use on the 
participant's machine?

You will also want to remove the uppercase application shown here:

You will also want to heed the advice in red on this page:
http://canis.csc.ncsu.edu:8005/anansi_ops/
ummm, think of what I could have done from there! You are publishing all the IP 
addresses and machine names of your participants. And from the users link, you 
are publishing all of their EMail addresses. "...hey what's this send mass 
email link do??" :) you better lock it up! Force a signon and don't allow 
connections to the ops page from off-campus IP addresses.

Have you incorporated a secure procedure for signing your applications?

Hope this helps.

If you think I'm picking on you, just wait until you start getting results back 
that were not produced by your application :) Hope you have a thorough 
validator too.

Running Microsoft's "System Idle Process" will never help cure cancer,
 AIDS nor Alzheimer's. But running rose...@home just might!
