I think that it looks pretty good, however, a few comments:

  o I do not mind the pink, it just does not go with a white background.
  o Lists, try:

        <ul>
        <li> Header 1
          <ol>
          <li> Item 1
          <li> Item 2
          <li> Item 3
          </ol>
        <li> Header 2
          <ol>
          <li> Item 1
          <li> Item 2
          </ol>
        </ul>

    This will produce:


      o Header 1
        1) Item 1
        2) Item 2
        3) Item 3
      o Header 2
        1) Item 1
        2) Item 2

    This will make it work a bit better under lynx.  If you really just
    want to tab in, use <blockquote> Text </blockquote>.

  o I think that the list data is too verbose.
  
    For instance, when you are listing the mailing lists, you have the
    name, a link, and small description.  This is good.  Then, you point
    to the the archives; it is trivial to find the archives from the
    link that you already gave.  Eliding these lines will cut that
    section by half and you loose nothing.

    Also with ppp, you list three items, however, they all go to the
    same place.  Further more, this is not the correct way to get ppp,
    there is a debian package called um-pppd that the user should
    download.


Overall, it looks good and I am very happy that everything is coming
together now.

Thanks.
