May I ask why? The purpose of Ada-Auth.org is to provide information; most
of that information is natively plain text (AIs, Ada source code) and
attempting to dress it up would detract from the information. (The attempt
to provide prettier AIs in the version control system also leads to lots of
people complaining about failures in the automated formatting; it's not
possible to provide both pretty and 100% accurate results.)
I can see the value of "pretty" for marketing-related sites, but not for raw
information, especially if it gets in the way of accurately presenting that
information.
Randy.
