Great idea - I've added a page "The Directory" which is linked to from the main navigation across the top as well as from the main body of text on the welcome page. If you want to look over than and see what you think of the links, and the page, so far? I'm sure there's loads more to go in - and I want to put all those links over to the "Free Culture Links" sidebar bit too. > > Another idea would be a participatory version of the DVD.

Again this is a cool idea but I'm not sure I'd have the ability to implement this one. If you had any ideas? To make the DVD at the minute I extract the data from the iso of the Live CD and the DVD and put it into one folder + media files for the computer, then create a new iso image using mkisofs. Probably not the most elegant solution but it works :D I'm planning on including detailed instructions on the site of how to make your own DVD though so perhaps that would be enough? At least a step in the right direction... > > One bug: I had a problem with the pages not showing up properly in Konqueror > (default web browser on the KDE desktop, which shares its render engine with > Safari).

The hyperlinks in the footer would change to black when you hovered, they now change grey so are still readable - was this what you meant? I'm sorry if not, let me know again and I'll see if I can find what you mean. I had a look in Konqueror myself but didn't spot anything. Thanks again :D Get back in touch any time...
