Hi Mariano, great job.

I was able to install Seaside 3 as per your instructions.   Xubuntu 9.10.

OB, refactoring, code critics all appear to be working faultlessly. I am
impressed.

The only concern is that it took some hours to download and install Seaside
(albeit on a slow spare PC). And with occassional network glitches, I had to
restart a method a few times from a debugger. So this would not be a
practical proposition for a new Pharoer.

Also the choice of fonts and theme makes for a better aesthetic result than
the previous web image. For me, this is a much better image than that
version.

Thanks for all the work you have put into this,    ...Stan
