I don't mind if Matus / whoever, also takes over other than bio.tools entries. > >> * The coloured backgrounds don't work in Firefox, but that's no problem at > >> all. > > Strange.

Just settle with something what I should put there and I'll do as decided but do not make me changing the style twice a week. Take the colors as demonstration what we *can* do, not what we need to do and come up with a patch to the css file. > > Nice hints.

Its most probably a task for two persons: One who does the design and one who implements that design. I'd be really happy if someone would like to do this job but I will be none of the above said persons. > >> * RRID|SciCrunch: identifiers.org don't guarantee anything.

I admit I did not expected that these registries are that much in flux and I'm honestly wondering if we have **way** more software packaged what is the real sense of those registries. I have no idea what amount of work is needed to add a registry entry but I naively assume that in most cases the work is less than creating a proper package.
