That sounds like a plan. I believe we are both the head of the Web Team, 
so let's proceed.

Let's replace the current Aida with a newer version. The prototype I 
made has only has one advantage, which is Bootstrap, which Aida already 
has. I envision the current Aida homepage with the carousel from my 
prototype. Clearly some thought needs to go into how those two would fit 
together.

We will have more visual continuity by staying with the design we have 
now. Though, lots of links need to be removed or updated in the current 
site.

It might be easier to use RFB in the image and not use external VNC. I 
recommend adding Ian's RFB to the Aida image, so members of the Web Team 
can control/reboot RFB problems themselves.

Let me download Aida/Scribo and play with it for a week and perhaps we 
could follow up.

Thanks,
Chris
