Hello I suggest the link "harry eaton's PCB Homepage" to be removed because it contains obsolete code and just confuses the users.
If you want to retain it I would put it at the end of the page and not the beginning. Usually webpage content is sorted according to increasing obsolescence and not decreasing. Then I would put links to PCB packages for NetBSD into Download section. There's no reason why it should be on a prominent place on the webpage. I would then put "Some quick notes about surface mount pad specifications." into the official PCB manual. Can you tell me a reason why PCB manual should be fragmented into "The PCB-20050127 manual:" and "Some quick notes about surface mount pad specifications.", while one of them being in multiple format and the other only in online HTML? This just adds confusion. If confusion is your goal, then I suggest to take more random sub-sub-chapters from the manual, separate and publish them on (best different) websites under different formats (OpenOffice, TeX, as JPEG image, in plain ASCII). Then I suggest to put Links below Manual and Home at the top because the reference manual is more important to users than links. You can use a EDA system that has manual and doesn't have links, but you cannot use a system which has only links and has no manual. I would also put Home at the top of the left box. I also suggest to remove the eye-punching vertical discontinuities in the marble background of the "PCB: Printed Circuit Board Editor". They are stronger than the text itself and make it hard to read. Or I would remove the supposedly-to-be-marble thing anyway. It just breaks the visual appearance of the website horribly. The feeling I have from it is 3-year-old exploring the functions in GIMP, sorry. I also suggest the left PCB logo to be rendered again and this time correctly cropped, not cutting the lower part (the reflection) away. It always makes a disturbing feeling. The reflection is on top of that done incorrectly - I can't imagine a phsyical situation that would be equivalent to the picture. CL<
