Hi.

This thread turned to topics of higher importance than mere cosmetics.

Few miscellaneous thoughts.

Why not create a bugzilla section for website and forum so it is easier to report glitches and enhancement requests in a way that you will quickly see without distraction? (Andralex posted to general D section in bugzilla, but was black holed till this thread came up).

Secondly, I was browsing old forum messages and got this error. I am amazed by the lean elegant power of dfeed source code - coming from C, I keep wondering where the rest of it is - but maybe as D matures it is worth the trouble to beautify reports like the following. (It should say something like "Sorry - that message has been deleted. Click here to go back to the previous screen).

I thought of making a pull, but I am guessing however I write it at my level of experience will not fit with the gestalt of how you would do things. Let me know of I am wrong, and will do so next time if I get the chance.

Incidentally, although it is common sense for experienced programmers, how about linking in the learning D section to suggest that people review the following showcase D projects to learn idiomatic D? Later, someone with the inclination could add some commentary. P0nce and others are doing a great job setting out small idiomatic D snippets, but we could do more on explaining how to write larger patterns.

Thirdly: I get the sense that the search features in the old digitalmars web front end are slightly more powerful than at dlang.org. And it is easier to browse by year etc. Could we add to list to match them / provide the standard set of features that google groups offers ?
