Your post made me sad, as I was momentarily reminded of K5, and needed to check it out to make sure it was still dead. And then of course I went on to try Memepool as well, but that site doesn't even respond anymore. I'm too young

> Dietary fat is what is primarily stored and leads to weight gain during caloric excess Do you have a source for this? The sources [1], [4] you quoted don't seem to say that, at least in a way I could understand.

I maintain a number of sites that use PmWiki [1] as a CMS. The community's small (though active), it's in PHP, and the editing isn't WYSIWYG, but the reason I ended up with it in the first place is how well the framework is organised and ho

Vertical panels need more design and testing. I haven't tried 11.04/Unity yet, but my experience with previous releases has not been encouraging w.r.t. setups without any horizontal panels. For example, with 10.10 I need to set the backgrou
