I wouldn't say every media... lots of outlets received the release and
didn't cover it, although they may reconsider when they see the BBC
coverage.
The BBC journalist understood the significance of Sugar running on old

Yeah, thanks for putting that there! It's good to have another reference

Those are screenshots of Browse with some modification. It's not my
decision what typefaces are used. Furthermore, we pages can choose
fonts on their own (or at least choose between Serif and Sans-Serif).
I was looking for some feedback about the extra features added to

OK I added a direct link to the Strawberry page at the top of the
page, hopefully visitors will go straight there. A pancake button
would be better, but I don't know if the wiki can do that.
The SoaS page is well-referenced so visitors should be guided from that page.
