	Some thoughts (as requested :) - many are unrelated to the changes
	you have been making.

	- It might look better without the whitespace between the
	  / and port name eg:
	  <font size="+4"><b>NetBSD/</b></font><font size="+4"
	  color="#3090cc"><b>arm32</b></font>

	- Possibly standardise on at least the same vertical gap before
	  the start of the main text.

	- For people browsing you could have small 'previous port',
	  'next port' links at the top of the page.

	- 'Archive of older news items' link might look better indented.

	- The 'Supported computer systems' and similar titles might be
	  better left justified.

	- I like the way the arm32 directory is split into 'help' and
	  'notes on the latest arm32 release', though the formatting
	  around it could obviously be tweaked :)
