Hi.
As I understand the general consensus - following my sample in the sandbox - no one votes for Svetlana's -
Would a [1] work by the text that the link is referring to, like how
wikipedia does it?
so I have killed that!
Also I have reduced the multiple "this" and someone kindly has converted my numbered lists to bullets (unless the sequence space space * space is handled differently inside and outside the sandbox).
Which leaves this question raised on 30/10/13 16:37 and repeated on 30/10/13 19:21 which I would appreciate some guidance on -
In both Contributors and Committers both Bazaar and Launchpad are mentioned but are not links whereas in Committers both Mallard and Docbook are links.
Should not Bazaar and Launchpad also be links?
After all that excitement I am going to lay down in a dark room for a few days! Bye!
Best wishes, Martin
