Asumu, thanks for the effort. I like the width of the Ruby and Clojure pages -- space on each side is good. I really like the highlighting of the sample code on the Ruby page. I prefer our organization of sample code, and I wish we could run some of these in Danny's compiler. I like the height of the old Racket page. And I like the simplicity of the old Racket page and the Clojure page.
I do NOT like pages that have text below my laptop screen 'fold'. My eyes do glaze over. And I am off the page quickly. I wouldn't mind a second Racket site that has some of what Asumu proposes, say Racket-fans.org On Dec 20, 2011, at 7:49 AM, Sam Tobin-Hochstadt wrote: > I like the idea too, but I think we should bring more content from > other parts of the site to the front page.
