Chromium doesn't like the object markup. It shows tiny frames with
scrollbars. It seems there is no cross-platform way to simply display
an SVG image.

Small suggestion from me:
On the index page, change "Information" into "About".
* About is a keyword used in many apps that means: "info about this program"
* The icon already tells you it's information.
* "Information" is very broad. Most of the site is information.

that could be governed more like a wiki: anyone (who's logged in) can
change the page, and every edit is listed in a changelog. Just like
with wikis, you can 'watch' pages for changes, which is sort of
analogous to becoming a maintainer. The comments would then be
analogous to a wiki talk page.

became better, the buggy program stopped working. Of course it also
meant that a lot of other programs started working. At some point you
have to stop making bad programs work, and implement the API as close
to Windows itself as possible. The buggy program can still be made to
work with a custom patch.
