[vtk-developers] Re: [vtkusers] New Web Pages

[Lisa S. Avila]

Hello Simon,

Thanks for the feedback - you make a good point. I will add an 
announcements page and a link from the side bar. After that, it will be up 
to the folks who have announcements to make (add new classes, make 
significant changes, etc) to add the information to the page. That's all 
VTK developers, not just the folks here at Kitware.

Any developer can access the web pages - the same way you check out vtk, 
you can check out vtkhtml. After making your committing changes please send 
me email so that I can update the web server.

We'll try this for a while and see if it works. The page should be there 
some time this afternoon.

Lisa
