I've changed the format of the 'What's New[^]' list of new articles. It's a little cleaner and includes article scores - but is it useful? Does it make it easier to follow?
cheers,
Chris Maunder

I like the listing options - good job! 
One thing, though - it makes it easier for my eyes to do a "sweep-over" if each day has some kind of box around it. (Maybe have a light orange box for each day.)

Not really. The background colour is terribly white and not much
difference between visited/non-visited links. Frankly I liked
the old softer colour better. How about setting this in
'Personal Settings'.
Just my 0.02 €.

There, you said just what I wanted to say, but said it better.

's ok... For some odd reason though, i find myself cocking my head to the side as i read, as though it were in a mirror or upside down.
Maybe i've just been at work too long...

I liked the old format better, at least the colorization. IIRC there has been an option to toggle between two display modes, hasn't there?

The only thing I would change would be to add a heavy orange <hr> between each day's articles. That would help me be able to glance over each day's entries.
Maybe a smaller line between each section within a day as well, to make it easier to tell which article is in which section (this would be especially helpful when there are several groups in a row, each with one article)
The layout, icons, scores are all fine. I don't mind the lack of colors, however in the old layout the different colors did provide the visual separators that I now miss.

I don't particulary care for the stark white background, especially since all of the other pages have nicer colors. The article scores don't really help me, because if I am interested in a certain topic, I'll read the article anyway. Afterwards, I may agree that it should have the low or high score it got. But, since the score won't affect my decision to read or not read an article, it is superfluous.
The new/update/moved indicators are alright, but since the page is titled "What's New," I would expect everything I see there to be "new" in some way. If an article has a name that I remember seeing earlier, then I can assume it is an update. It's not new because I remembered seeing it before, and it wouldn't be on the "What's New" page if something hadn't happened to it. Therefore, those indicators are superfluous too.
I do like the categories, though, as that helps me ignore things that are of little interest or to focus on areas that are of more interest.

Hi Chris!
It's easier to follow yes, though it would be very very nice to add something like
an article id to all articles for referencing. It's easier to tell other people about
problems they have. "Look at article CP-12312131 ..  " know what I mean?

I liked the original format better.
onwards and upwards...

If the article is still around then our system usually finds it. If it's gone then it's gone. (yes, this can be polished a bit )

Any chance of a picture of the new CP systems... The 10 machines lying around in Canada... The one on the about us page looks old.

I would love to see this also. Kind of a behind the scenes look.

(just me thinking..)
How is this Score calculated?
2 votes: a 5 and a 1 gives Score:4.2
a 5 and a 4 gives Score:4.8 I have seen.
so it is obviously something else than an average. But what?
