Yes, such a section surely would be interesting. But my question is rather towards the technology behind, thus please give the blog and/or news module a try to see whether it fits at all. So far the reason for blog/news is that it takes away the burden to manually create a structure, "fire and forget" - just create the page and leave organizing the pages (what to show where, manage archive, etc) to the module/cms. So yes, for this it makes sense. So please play with it on the staging site. ciao Christian -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to website+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/website/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
