Howdy Christoph,

hmm - well I've had an account on the main site for a long while and
never used it..looking at the draft it looks good. I can push the
publish button, what could go wrong..

I think maybe we should look at some type of banner campaign management
here. There will always be something deserving of some mention and a
continuing need for the call for donations - so something that cycles
banners makes sense, not cycle as in the screen shots cycling during a
session, rather something akin to an ad banner campaign manager where we
want to display different banners on some rotating session basis.

Anyway, just a little quick checking and as expected the idea has been
addressed in the SilverStripe world already - but that is for another
day and I'll push a different email on the idea to the list with some
links to SilverStripe resources that I find.

Gk - will handle it.

I think that is actually going along reasonably well, thanks in large
measure to J-K's work.
