The page is looking excellent, and though there might be some tweaking yet to be done a conversion now would still be a good idea, I think. >Actually, the only missing page is nowar.php (which we want >ported to the new layout as well ;-). >Is there any volunteer to fix it? I will admit that I don't agree with the sentiment expressed on that page, but that's not the main reason I don't think it should be on the site. It just isn't the kind of thing that one should place on a website dedicated to distributing a version of the Linux operating system. If Ark were to become more popular, it could needlessly lose possible users - who would benefit from it - just because they were turned off by its perceived political spin. No Linux distribution, I think, really needs a political attitude. The nowar page is better suited for a personal website. That's how I feel, but at the same time I think that Ark is too good of an idea for me to stop helping out with even if you guys and gals don't agree with me. Alan
