Other sites:
--------------

Any reason why the ATARIM has two entires- one in the fron page and one in
the atarim page? This means things need to be maintained twice. In
addition, Haifux is not listed in one of the lists.


Projects:
-------------
Israeli projects: I believe Aviram has collected a list of Israeli
Free software projects, which can be used for the site, if the people who
manage those projects agree. On a more haifux note, there are several
Israeli projects listed on

http://www.haifux.org/projects/index.html

including syscalltrack.

BTW, is it the intention to list there Israeli open source projects
(including public domain and things which cannot be changed) or just free
software (which can be read, compiled, changed, and re-distributed)? I
think the title is a bit mis-leading.


Forums:
-----------------
In the forums lists, you have several forums which are described by their
own name, which I belive was not the intention. (i.g. walla and ynet)


Events:
-------------------
Regarding events: Haifux is holding the fifth  "Welcome to Linux" events,
starting 27/10/03, details on  http://www.haifux.org/newcomers/. The main
page states that there are no events whatsoever on the next two months,
which is a rather misleading title. Maybe it would be bewtter to say that
no events were reported, or none are known.

Anyway, the link for reporting events is broken:
http://iglu.org.il/event_publish.html is not found on the server.

When going to the known events link, there are events which took place
months ago. I am offered again to publish an event, now on the right link:

http://beta.linux.org.il/publish_event.html .

This page states that there is a form there, where I can fill in the
details. There is no form there (checked the html source, it is not a
browser problem).


Contact:
-------------
This part of the site ( http://beta.linux.org.il/contact.html) is gender
specific, in contrast to other parts of the site. Note that we have
already been approached with criticism as to Haifux's site (in Hebrew)
being gender specific. (Fixed already).

Counseling:
---------------
I suggest linking to the Linux counselers page on iglu, as well as to any
counseler's page.
