Not now, it doesn't. It probably did before because the list was
empty, but someone posted a message to it this morning, so now there's
something in there to look at.

Perhaps it would be nice to have that somewhere. 

I should note that

2a) There is a mailing list for website issues (posting here is fine
too though).

2b) I'm nowhere near a good web designer. I know enough to write valid
HTML and run the W3C HTML validator, but that's about it. As an
artist, I make a really good software engineer. But as project lead I
do have the ability to delagate control of the website to other
persons, and I'd like to see that happen at some point.

2c) The website is actually in public CVS at
http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/non-gnu/Grace/?cvsroot=www.gnu.org
(the "Browse CVS HTML" link on the main project page). That means that
if you see something obviously wrong, the best way to get it fixed
(barring having me give you write access as mentioned in 2b), would be
to submit a patch. There is also a link for that on the main project
page.
