My responses are below, once the changes, errors, typos, etc are dealt
with I will send out another patch.

Fixed - I am using a new CSS class "content" for most of the paragraphs,
it justifies the content which makes it look a bit weird on some shorter
paragraphs so I did not use it consistently. I've now used the class for
the lines you mention and some others.

Fixed! (do'h)

Done. More or less. I'd rather leave the first line on it's own so it
stands out (yes I know it's already bold : ).

I actually had addressed the caching/mirroring on the main Communicate
page, it seemed a bit wordy to include on the irc/listserv pages so took
it out. - http://ur1.ca/3sjh6
It's now available, formatted slightly different, on the irc and
listserv pages (as per your suggestion).

Let's leave it as feedback@ for now and replace it later.
As far as I've seen we have two email addresses used:
Dokuwiki account/documentation questions - docs at evergreen-ils.org
General feedback - feedback at evergreen-ils.org
We need a generic one for anything related to website content
(*.evergreen-ils.org) say - web at evergreen-ils.org

Fixed. It's as I mentioned above, me not being consistent (on purpose).
> * On irc.php - Same suggestions as for listserv.php on grouping the
> transparency/logging/remediation policies
Done.

I'd like to leave it as it is on the main documentation.php page
(changed "Process Documentation" to "Development process documentation")
and have now changed the drop down menu entries. Also added "watch us
work" under the SVN section on the Evergreen and OpenSRF downloads pages.

Thanks I'd been putting it for a long time and am happy it's finally done.
