I like the new home page with the quick start examples and news etc. But
may I humbly suggest not to use fixed widths for the two columns of the
front page, but rather adapt (mostly the left column) to the user's
window size? If I view the page, I cannot get rid of the scroll bars for
the example boxes, even if I view in full screen mode. This makes the
comments behind the commands hard to read.

Hi Ben, thanks for the feedback. The body width is specified to keep the
page looking coherent and readable when the window is very large, as is
more common these days (a lot of sites do this). I specified the column
widths to fit within that with the right proportions, and to avoid
scrollbars at default font sizes on all the browsers/platforms I tried.
Can you send me a screenshot (eg via http://pasteshack.net , it's
super-easy) and tell me your browser, platform, and special font settings
if you have any ?

Hi Simon

Coming back to this old thread just to say that with the current version of
the darcs home page the problem has disappeared.

Again, many thanks for this work, the latest version is even better: links
to the wiki, nicely grouped, quick install instructions, a very good blurb,
it's almost perfect.

Thanks Ben. I forward this to Guillaume who did the wiki import and content 
changes.

I think we need to drop most of the wasteful wiki chrome (compare mercurial's
or git's site, or haskell.org). I hope to look into that soon.
