Hi Søren, I really like the new octave-forge web-site! I came across two (very) minor issues: - your name does not display correctly in http://octave.sourceforge.net/generate_html/index.html unless the page uses the UTF-8 encoding (instead of the ISO-8859-1 charset). In the header of the html page, one need to change the following: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/> - On the page http://octave.sourceforge.net/developers.html, tar cvzf package-html.tar.gz should be probably tar cvzf package-html.tar.gz package-html Cheers, Alex ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ Octave-dev mailing list Octave-dev@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/octave-dev
