This sounds good to me. I've been learning HTML also, so that I can try
and do something to the site. I was wondering where you are at as far as
having an account on cran etc. Roger gives out the accounts but I could
help you through the process of getting set up as I have just been
through it. I would get ssh set up on your computer before asking for an
account since you will want to change the password as soon as possible.
I don't know if you are coming from Linux or Windows but for reference
I'm running Linux (RedHat 6.0) on a dual booted system and have a 24/7
DSL connection. Anyway let me know if I can help.

I don't know why there seems to be so little interest in the web site. I
view as being very important..

I would certainly like to see a lot more get achived which means getting
more people involved.
