The Shen website has been overhauled in the first phase of the open science
In sum the changes are

* toplinks have changed bringing social channels to the front
* the download page has been streamlined, placing legacy material
   in a seperate page for those who want it.
* Shen/tk has been extended to include key bindings and tags from TCL/tk.
* the Extended Library and the Standard Library are demarcated clearly
* Shen/tk is now extensively documented
* the programs supporting Logic, Proof and Computation have been revised
   and simplified 
* the Amazon link to the 4th edition of TBoS has been replaced by a link to
   the 5th edition

I'm working systematically on improving the rendering of all online material.
The options of hardcopy will remain in all cases and we also hope to make
low cost epub available.

Missing are the pages on

* THORN
* Yggdrasil

which will appear when I've more time

There are likely to be navigation aids in the Shen education page allowing
people to comfortably navigate what is already a large site and will become larger
in the coming weeks.

Your number of visitors increased by 319% compared with last week. You had a total of 8,320 page views.
So says my webhost.
