As far as I can recall Theo has already commented once that the
website is not going to be redesigned in the forseeable future since
it is accomplishing its purposes as laid out by Nick. I doubt that
this topic is of sufficient interest to generate multiple comments.
Well that's fine - and I assume Nick knows this? So why do you suppose
he felt it necessary to jump down the guy's throat? Why not just
let it
go? That way, Nick could spend his time brushing up on web design
instead of wasting it in this fashion?
I assume it's because Nick is a VOLUNTEER that spends an unlimited
amount of time keeping the site updated with CONTENT. He knows that
no matter what design changes he wishes to make will undoubtedly be
shot down by Theo since the site is already FUNCTIONAL and meets the
goals of the project.
I don't speak for Nick, but I imagine he probably feels a bit
unappreciated when folks feel like nitpicking his "design", when that
is probably not his job (certainly not his focus) in the first
place. If you want to bitch about the design, take it to the
ultimate arbitrator-- Theo, preferably OFFLIST.
