Message:                        Hi Jon,

I apologise in advance if this is directed to the wrong person, but I am
writing with a question about OCAL, which I know know you\'ve been pretty
involved in. If you aren\'t the right person, could you please forward this
to someone appropriate?

I\'m writing to ask if you know anything about the Beta OCAL interface going
live. It seems to me that it\'s working pretty well, and it has several
advantages, not least the ability to see clipart thumbnails instantly.

I believe that the old/current OCAL interface is basically unusable for
newcomers and would prevent lots of people from taking advantage of the
site. The beta looks terrific, but hardly anyone knows about it.

If there are some good reasons for not switching over, could there at least
be a prominent link from the old/current site so that people can give it a
try?

Additionally, the contact form on the old/current OCAL site doesn\'t work
for me in either FF3.5 or IE8 (with all ad, cookie and JS blockers off). The
CAPTCHA doesn\'t show. Hence the email to you.

One last thing. If it\'s useful to anyone, I\'ve made two search plugins
that should work for FF2+,  IE7+ and the most recent dev versions of Chrome.

See;
For old site;

For beta site;

Thanks for your help,

Rygle.
