I copied this grey from the Hurd site.  I agree the directory looks better,
make this change soon.

I have to ask someone with legal knowledge.  IIRC 1996-2003 is valid.

I made a few attempts at that, but I find it pollutes the navbar - plus it
completely breaks the text-mode (lynx/links/w3m) compatibility.

If anyone has a sollution, please mail me.

Dunno, perhaps the navbar needs reordering, now that it is a navbar.  As
someone else said, the other links ("why we exist", etc) should be moved to
it probably...

Again, proposals for a reordered navbar are welcome (but should probably CC
to rms)
