james page has always worked for what you use it for, i understand that.

but does james's page, have ALL the features of the existing page?
I'm not aware that it does.

for example, you cannot search for shared libs
nor does it link to the mantis section, for an individual package.

I am not averse to replacing the existing page. I'd just like to make sure
that it is an UPgrade, rather than a sidegrade. Features should be added,
not traded one for another.
