Glad to see this page Steve.
I'm in two minds on the layout. There's too much on one page, but you
want to entice readers with reasonably sized graphics. I wonder if
there should be an introductory page with some graphics, but then links
including images to applications and infrastructure pages giving more
details. My picture is of a dark background and a squarer if not
landscape page.
In the current format, how about a little more space or rules between
each tool, and the names of the packages where introduced with the link
be in a larger fount? At the moment the applications tend to run into
each other.
The SPLAT screen shot could be made bigger. It looks fuzzy on my
screen. Compared that with the large Frog screen shot.
On SoG I think we have to admit that it's early days, and it currently
lacks lots of the GAIA functionality.
Should we mention that Java tools will be runnable on Windows? I
suspect we should leave that until they've been proven to do so.
I gather this may just lack some BAT files.
On navigation: when I hit the back button, I'm always taken to the top
of the page, rather than where I was looking. For a short page that's
not a problem, but it's annoying on a long page.
Typo' "TREEVIWE Screen Shot"
HDX page has its title overprinting the Starlink logo.
