Carl: I would also love to draw the entire main page using free marker, but I am starting small with just getting the contents going. The work I am proposing now does not preclude working on the layout and css of buttons etc…
However by co-worker Michel is right there with you wanting to fix things up - so please reach out to him on this… - Please share your template here in email, or if you have time to help add directly to the proposal page. - I like he idea of making a model for the service / tool links. - The administrator section is just a block of wicket and I do not intend to change that.
