To indicate the page of a referred page, use the hreflang attribute of the tag. (Hmmm, the language links at the bottom of each page should of course have a proper hreflang, I can't believe I missed that) -- \\// peter - http://www.softwolves.pp.se/ Statement concerning unsolicited e-mail according to Swedish law: http://www.softwolves.pp.se/peter/reklampost.html

It's likely that the new master will handle this with much less problems -- its performance has improved drastically for all resource-wasteful scripts I tried :) And I didn't actually ask anyone to allow lintian runs -- there was once lintian lab on it, it can be back. I'm sure that if something goes wrong the admins will shut it down, that is easy. -- 2. That which causes joy or happiness.
user-french list
Hello, I have tried to subscribe to the debian-user-french mailinglist under the address "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". I got a confirmation, but I never got a message since the beginning. I was allready subscribed to this list for some months, but I don't know if this has something to do with. What is happening ?

[...] And Debian native packages do include changelog.gz instead of changelog.Debian.gz I ran a script (should be on ftp-master.debian.org ~barbier/changelog IIRC) yesterday but could not let it go through the entire archive because I had to sleep, my impression was that symlink files are not a problem, and symlink doc directory are frequent but easy to handle. I'll send a full script when it is finished. Denis

Hi, there is a new Perl/ toplevel directory, which is needed to build some pages (currently all original documents, and */international/l10n/ in a near future ;)) So make sure to cvs update -d Perl if you use to compile WML files. Denis

Yes, I know what you are thinking. I never responded to one of these before either. One day though, something just said "you throw away $25.00 going to a movie for 2 hours". "What the heck."

DUE TO THE RECENT INCREASE OF POPULARITY & RESPECT THIS PROGRAM HAS ATTAINED, IT IS CURRENTLY WORKING BETTER THAN EVER. Read on. It's true. Every word of it.

Please create debian-user-woody list. And- debian-testing archive is broken.
VERY IMPORTANT (IMHO) I think it would be an excellent idea to have a debian-user-woody list. The debian-testing is for developers. But I suspect there are many people (myself included) who are just trying to _use_ woody, and are _not_ developers. Such a list would help debiam by: 1. Providing a forum for woody _users_ to discuss issues. perhaps enabling testing debugging to proceed faster since woody users will have a concise reference place for their concerns and not have to waste lots of time digging through other places (such as debian-user, perhaps) where woody issues are not the primary topic. 2. Keeping debiam-testing from having user traffic, thus letting it focus on development issues. I believe this list would be a big time saver for debian-woody users and help boost the efficiency of the debian project overall. I hearby request you give this issue serious consideration at your earliest possible convenience. Thank you. :) The debian-testing archives have no operational link past April 2001. Yet: 1. I sent the original msg in this thread there several days ago http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2001/debian-user-200109/msg00411.html and the archives dont have a link for Sept. 2. I am subscribed to the list, and the list is working, because today a message came to me that had been posted to the list.
