Then let's just call it Ex-Jakarta. > Additionally, how long would we maintain links to said projects etc? 6 months to a year. Let me ask the reverse question: How long would you keep the link to a subproject once it leaves? Would you remove it as soon as the project leaves, or keep it around for a while? If the latter, why wouldn't you move it to an Ex-Jakarta section instead? > I think Graduated is best replaced by: > > News item on graduation that stays prominent for a few months. Some kind > of larger [EMAIL PROTECTED] page. It's not clear to me that people will go and read the News section if they can't find the link to the subproject. After all, if there's no link, then it can't be a Jakarta subproject, so why would there be Jakarta news about it? -- Martin Cooper > >> 7) Removal of Our Mission.
