Hi, Dick. I'm no one important, but my first thought when seeing the Wiki was maybe that you could add a link to the next section at the bottom of each page in addition to the contents on the right so that a user wouldn't have to hunt through the contents?
You've done a really good job. I haven't even figured out where to get started yet. Good luck. :) De Angela On 12/27/13, Dave <davepo...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Andrea, > > Thanks for all the work you've put in, i'm really grateful. > > Yes, I've gone for the Apache License.
