Hi.

This thread turned to topics of higher importance than mere 
cosmetics.

Few miscellaneous thoughts.

Why not create a bugzilla section for website and forum so it is 
easier to report glitches and enhancement requests in a way that 
you will quickly see without distraction?  (Andralex posted to 
general D section in bugzilla, but was black holed till this 
thread came up).

Secondly, I was browsing old forum messages and got this error.  
I am amazed by the lean elegant power of dfeed source code - 
coming from C, I keep wondering where the rest of it is - but 
maybe as D matures it is worth the trouble to beautify reports 
like the following.  (It should say something like "Sorry - that 
message has been deleted.  Click here to go back to the previous 
screen).

I thought of making a pull, but I am guessing however I write it 
at my level of experience will not fit with the gestalt of how 
you would do things.  Let me know of I am wrong, and will do so 
next time if I get the chance.

Incidentally, although it is common sense for experienced 
programmers,  how about linking in the learning D section to 
suggest that people review the following showcase D projects to 
learn idiomatic D?  Later, someone with the inclination could add 
some commentary.  P0nce and others are doing a great job setting 
out small idiomatic D snippets, but we could do more on 
explaining how to write larger patterns.

Thirdly: I get the sense that the search features in the old 
digitalmars web front end are slightly more powerful than at 
dlang.org.  And it is easier to browse by year etc.  Could we add 
to list to match them / provide the standard set of features that 
google groups offers ?
