It's really well designed, I like it.

Normally, GNU prefer to use just the HTML 2.0 standard. This ensures that
pages can be read even on text mode browsers like lynx.

I notice you've used DIVs and so on... any chance you could convert these to
something a bit more HTML 2.0?

If you can't I suggest you do this:

- create a directory for crypto on the classpathX website (follow the
example of JAXP).
- subdivide the webpage into separate sections.
- ensure the main crypto index page is HTML 2.0 compliant.

The release will go on the ftp server. If you let me know about when you're
ready to release then I will check out your code and build it (as a final
sanity check) and put it up on the ftp server.

That's why you need a target to produce the tar file (see the gnu coding
standards for info).

Leave it to me.. when we've resolved this HTML version issue I'll put the
link in.

This is all coming together really well! Well done!

Excellent. I'll put the link in from the main page tonight.
