I am not sure what you're saying here, but as far as I'm concerned,
I think we should have a link in the menu *only* to the Supported
Applications page (the hand written one), and from there a link to
the Application Database. If this is what you're saying, I agree.
If you are saying that we should point people directly to the Application Database, I disagree.
I'm advocating that the main menu link be called 'Supported Applications', and I'm reserving judgement on what the resulting page looks like. However, I think your suggestion is fine, so long as the app db is not buried as far as you would seem to like it.

But this is meaningless duplication. All menus are visible on the screen, so there is no point in having two CVS links on the main page. In order to use the latest CVS, you better know you're dealing with Development stuff, so I still think it belongs under Development. In fact, current practice is to put CVS stuff under development, and _NOT_ download. Look at SourceForge, and a gazillion other sites. And as I said, I think there are good reasons for doing it. And BTW, even if there not, many times it's better to stay with the accepted practice in things of these nature.
Yikes. I hadn't understood that the whole menu tree would be visible on the main page. I don't like that at all. 34 choices on the first page is way more than the 7 max I advocate... Jer
