You should stress the importance of running the test suite before committing any changes to CVS. I wonder sometimes if we could use a tool like Aegis to enforce this rule.

Most days it seems we already have a slightly-delayed tool for this, called "Tim" . Unfortunately, it doesn't catch non-Windows glitches.

The new pages are great, Andrew! My only gripe: bulleted lists have no vertical whitespace between bullet points, when viewed under (at least) IE 6. This makes them hard to read, and even misleading when a bullet item contains more than one paragraph.

o This is the first bullet point, and yadda yadda yadda. o This is the second bullet point, and so likewise. o This is the third bullet point.

This is not the fourth bullet point, it's another paragraph in the third. o But this is the fourth bullet point.

I guess the prime advantage of style sheets is that they're an easy way to screw up a whole site at once .
