ELKS Website Fixer-Upper

ELKS Website Fixer-Upper

[Jody]

Well, everyone, it looks like I have everything short of admin 
privileges now, so I'll see what I can do about cleaning up this mess 
over the next couple of weeks.  Feel free to shoot any kind of 
suggestions you may have about the website my way.  The first two things 
that I think would be appropriate to do is to actually release "ELKS 
0.1.3" that never was released in a tarball, and throw up a small 
memorial page for the late RHW.

Anything else?

Hi Jody,

That is good news! I would add to your list fixing of the archive list since 
I am sure a lot of good knowledge is embedded in the old emails. For the 
memorial page, perhaps we can use the news article that Michael send around? 
not sure about copyrights though.

Nothing springs immediately to mind.

I have a wonderful idea, listen:
We collect our late friend's emails sent to this newsgroup on ELKS. Put 
them into a random message generator, and make a fortune page with 
edited emails, semi-edited emails, unedited emails, unedited quotes, and 
edited quotes. The emails bit is easy, just a matter of collecting them 
from the archive, the quotes is where we look at the emails, and take 
our our trusty yellow highlighter and select the best (and worst) of 
RHW's quotes.

Sounds like a nice memberance, don't you agree?
