It's in the URL? I don't know. If you're really concerned about her website layout the appropriate thing to do would be to contact her directly and express your concern. *Politely*. It's still completely irrelevant to this discussion: using it as some kind of evidence against her abilities as a UI designer was a needless stretch. If you want to question the anaconda UI design, _question the design_. This will work out a lot better from all perspectives than dragging in an entirely unrelated issue. I don't think we need to discuss this any further on test@. It has nothing to do with testing Fedora. If you want to complain about a given website's text rendering, contact that website through the appropriate channels. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
