Hi Uldis,

Thanks for the quick response, and thanks to Knud for the pdf to png.

Perhaps they could appear on the homepage, as an alternative to the pdf.
I understand the need for having handouts print as they match the
screen, but when pdf is used for online viweing, it is often a
disaster, with the information destroyed by the format, slow to load,
browser crashws, etc. (have seen it twice trying to show the PDF.

Thanks for helping build the word!

The domains "spreadthesemanticweb.com/net/org" have been registered
with the idea of a community site like spreadfirefox.com.

I am hoping that Chris Messina, creator of the spreadfirefox campaign, can help.

And of course, all of you.

Best,

Alex
