Web-design seems a bit off topic, but...
If you are talking internationalization, instead of a flag, the name of
the language written in the language would be nice. If you are talking
the logo-buttons, some people *really* dislike the animated ones, and they
often look meaningless or bad if the animations are turned off. With the
scrolling and resizing turned off for the top frame I cannot see the ALSA
button unless I widen my browser to 800 pixels it so the full top
frame/imagemap shows. When I'm researching a sofware problem, I really
like to be looking at the problem while I'm browsing for the answer on the
web and the current design doesn't work in either a half-screen
horizontally without continual scrolling, nor in a half screen vertically,
since the top frame uses half the half-window for an imagemap.
Other than that, the content is good.
Dave,
