Thanks for the kind feedback. Honestly I've spent the past nearly 10 years usind and supporting Debian. What are you missing that you find OpenBSD specific?
English is not my mother language but, shouldn't "On workaround.org you can save my findings in numerous articles." be "On workaround.org you can find my savings in numerous articles."?
Hi, thanks for your great site, the ISP Email tutorial is a great reference. However, there is some room for improvement: your website has a very ugly font, it is near to unreadable. I do not understand why since a few years some smaller websites suffer from this ugly-font desease, but it seems to be something that has to do with bad browser rendering and not building websites for all browsers etc. I am using Win XP / Win 7 and Debian / Ubuntu, but this webiste fonts look scrumbled and broken on all systems, also I tried several different machines, same result.
The font rendering is excelent for other programs and most other websites, only a few (small) websites suffer from this.
You can see a screenshot of how your site looks here:

This is not jpeg artifacts destroying the font rendering in this picture! The site looks like this on the screen!
Another annoyance:

No, I did not move the scrollbar up, I am just writing, just try it yourself.
Maybe it is better to ditch drupal - there are much better tools out there that give no headache, like e.g. http://docpad.org/
Thanks for the feedback. To be honest I'm browsing my own page from two different computers and operating systems and everything looks right. I'm using a standard Google font that is loaded from Drupal. So I can't explain why the rendering is so crappy for your.
Drupal sucks big time - I totally admit that. If there was once decent open-source CMS I'd switch instantly. I've tried Joomla and Typo3 recently (just for a few hours) and wasn't convinced either. Some people even keep telling me they use Wordpress as a CMS which is completely ridiculous.
I'm just watching the Docpad screencast out of curiosity. So far it looks more like a Javascript-based web framework. As I'm rather dealing with lots of content I'd prefer a CMS. If I started to hand-craft workaround.org I'd probably consider doing that with Rails. But thanks for the hint.
I use WinXP (IE8), Win7(IE8, FF, Safari) and MacOSx 10.6.8 (Safari) on different hardware. This site and its fonts looks perfect on all systems, no problem.

Thank you so much for your great work!
But unfortunately, there are *BSD users as well. Would you please make an OpenBSD section?
I'll soon send some donations!
Best wishes.
