[squeak-dev] What else is different in the new site? (was: Website change, Squeek by Example Game?)

You know, I just noticed that the new site does not have "What's New" section.

What else did the old site have that new site doesn't?  It's hard to
tell, because, unfortunately after having a digital presence on the
web for over a decade, someone arbitrarily took the site down without
warning or discussion.

Now, the new site is running from the same persons personal directory
on box3, and he has excluded even READ permission to the directory for
all but himself.

I was pretty much over my soreness about this until I just now saw
Abuzar couldn't finish the tutorial.  Chris C., thanks again for
taking the website ball and running with it.  Could you please loosen
your grip a bit and help us _transition_ to your new site more
gradually by putting the old site back up and running on box2?  For
professionalism, not sentimentality.  See if you can generate a
positive feedback loop in the community toward our web-presence, with
you as the conduit for instrumenting the changes (and/or a way to
delegate to others who can have access to do it).

Thank you!
