Ah, don't worry.  All of the stuff that is there currently has been
done entirely through Drupals administration interface.  There was no
custom coding involved.  That is what I like so much about it: It
provides all the basics and you can configure it to get a site
tailored to your exact needs.  Check out http://www.drupal.org --
there is lots of documentation.

That said, you still have to know what you want done, what kind of
features you need.  Thats certainly something where you could put your
user sense to work!

For starters, you could check out how the "plugin" content type and
the "category_list" view have been set up.  Feel free to create a new
content type and/or view and play around with it.  I have assigned the
necessary privileges, let me know if something doesn't work.

btw, I think you can still learn quite a bit about HTML and Scripting
based on Drupal, both when creating content and for more advanced
stuff.

No, it is not -- I configured it to require e-mail confirmation.

Well, it appears I didn't, sorry about that. As it were, the smart
host was not configured to relay mail from the virtual host.  Because
the smart host is also /my/ e-mail host, my own testmail was accepted
(delivery, not relay), but the one to you wasn't.

I changed that and requested a new password to be sent to you.
According to the mail-server logfiles, it was delivered to
mail.tux.com.au, which looks good.

cheers,
