Hi!
As the author of eCompletion I really appreciate the link and Screenshot of eCompletion on the http://www.squeak.org/Screenshots/ page.
As I have moved from http://homepage.mac.com/monique_bakker/squeak/eCompletion.html a while ago, it would be very helpful if you could change the link to http://uncomplex.net/ecompletion/.
Thank you! Kind regards, Ruben

I changed it to: http://uncomplex.net/ecompletion/index.html
that seemed to be the right link. Let me know if it's not.

Might I suggest that you not link in this manner? When you link to a directory, you let the HTTP server handle which file types can be served up automatically. This can include any file type which is specified, but typically by default also includes shtml (server- parsed HTML), php, asp, jsp, etc). When you link directly to an HTML file, your links are more likely to break in the future, if, for instance, the site were to switch to a dynamic content management system such as seaside or some type of wiki, for instance. Basically, linking in this way invites more e-mails from people saying "can you please fix this link" in the future, and it removes the ability for site maintainers to switch to modern content management systems without things breaking.

Sure you can suggest that. And I understand that. The reason that I did it this way as because I got a page not found with Ruben's link. I just tried it again and it seems to work. I just didn't have time before to bother with tracking the problem down.
Alex,
You have some good suggestions in your email. How about if you also help out in maintaining some pages?
