I can speak only for myself, but except for faq2 i found out about the  
other pages only when i checked out the homepage from cvs. I don't even  
know if the other pages were linked from the homepage.

This matter was already solved iirc.

I'm not going to vote.

It looks too much like a "Do you dislike Diego?" poll than an attempt  
to replace the webpage mantainer.

If we're going to make a serious poll, we also need to know what's the  
alternative. Who's going to replace him?


It's quite clear that you and Diego will never get along (that's  
probably true from both sides), so can we please stop to spam the lists  
everytime you two happen to disagree?

Ciao,
