Thanks. That goes up, next update.

Yeah, i guess so :) And thanks. That kind of thing helps after a hard day
:). However, Nishi - can we host this natively on Linux-Delhi? You'll be
able to maintain it through the CVS, and me and the others could have some
kind of access too, when errors surface. Also, It'd be nice to have it
fitting into the standard page structure, using the standard stylesheet
etc., so that the site can be easily, consistently, maintained - when the
layout changes a bit now and then.

No sweat. Nishi, and all others - here's what you can do

1) Write to Raju, and ask for write access to the CVS. Ofcourse, you'll
need to have some credibility before him, and you'll need to make a good
case for why you want write access.

2) Write to Raju again, ask him to alias intrepid@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx to your
email address.

a)	intrepid@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx receives around a couple of emails a week
that need to be replied to. When you want to handle some particular query,
CC it back to intrepid@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, so the same thing doesnt get done
twice.

b)	if you are making a major change into the website, float the idea on
intrepid@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, and wait for atleast a day for alt. suggestions
etc. Maintain a file named CHANGELOG.<yourname> in the root of the source
directory.

	When done, go ahead and edit intrepid.shtml, and hope your
girlfriend's parents will be impressed. :-) Mine werent. :(

	I think my act needs some cleaning up too. I'll start following
the above, effective now.

Apologies, thanks, regards and what not..
