Three things.

1. Overall, I like it.  I especially like the light gray, unoutlined
   boxes.  The following suggestions are minor things.

2. It's completely devoid of graphics.  It should have *something*
   beyond text and boxes.  The big "euglug.org" in the upper left
   renders very differently in Netscape 4 than in Mozilla.  How about
   replacing that with an image, and rounding or fading the top left
   corner above it?

3. I don't like the way the mailing list archive is presented.  The
   individual messages are too hard to distinguish.  Could you maybe
   either truncate them to a single line or render them in alternating
   colors?  A smaller font would be good, too.

4. (Did I say three?) the Navy blue at the top isn't doing anything
   for me.  Maybe lighten/desaturate it to somewhere around #225599 or
   use a contrasting color like #ff694c.  Or maybe leave that box
   white and borderless.  For something completely different, check
   out http://www.jogger-egg.com/euglug-new.html (just the color
   scheme of the top bar.  The rest of the page is neither complete
   nor new nor different.)

Perl too?
