The reason that Dhyani's document is pure gold is that it
tells us exactly what needs to be scripted. Going forward,
it is not reasonable to rely on playing the instructions
by hand, IMO.

I didn't change personalize_form.cpt, but I could have.
Here's how we should check these things. TortoiseSVN
makes it easy. Anyone reading this should take a moment
and follow the steps.

Open the repo-browser and navigate to vsaCore.
Select it, right-click, and choose "Show Log".
In the window that comes up, you see the repo revisions
in which any object below this directory changed.

For example, click revision 27. In the bottom pane, you
see that, as advertised, global_sections.pt was modified.
Select that line, right-click, and choose "Show Differences"
from the context menu. When the diff viewer arrives, you
see the changes made to 4 lines.

Here's one more. Select revision 23, right-click, and
choose "Show Unified Diffs" from the context menu.
These are all the changes under vsaCore in revision
23. Scroll down to personalize_form.cpt. You see
that in this revision, this object was made aware
of the keywords Rev and Id. This information is
not held in the file, but in .svn. Since we did
an "svn export" to the stage, the keyword information
is not known there. If you browse the file diff as
above, you will see no red or yellow.

Now when we get authentication set up against the
depot, we'll also know who committed each of the
repo revisions.

Well, not too great, but it is the kind of thing
you want to catch in staging.

It might be a CSS/browser issue. In MSIE, click on
GLOBAL LINKS, hold and drag down into the menu,
and then release. You can now mouse the menu.
There seems to be a gap between the menu and
the title across which focus is lost in MSIE.

We are staging the vsaCore and SriChinmoyRaces products,
so let's ignore it for now.
