Subject: A couple of observations 
Hi Stefan and Andreas,

When I submitted the previous entry, I had an error message about not able to send via psxxxx.psi.ch come up as
a red bar at the top of the elog page - sorry, cannot remember the subdomain name correctly.

The observations I was going to make is firstly the change in layout of the Find section - maybe I'll get used
to it but the change in layout wasn't warmly welcomed.

Also, shame that moving from Subversion means that the increments are no longer in easy numerical order.  So I
believe that I am commenting on the latest possible version available, a738232.

A question.  My logbooks directory is now 1.8GB.  Yes, there are a lot of attachments etc to bulk it out, but
it's all plain text comments.  Is there a limit as to the size, or total number of entries?  Elog takes a
notible amount of time to index it all these days, and I have wondered whether a couple of "instabilities" might
be caused by this.  Anyone any thoughts?

I don't know how I managed it, but I got elog to generate two entries with the identical ID no.  The new entries
were different as well.  The log file faithfully had recorded the two separate replies to the entry having the
same ID no as well.   Unfortunately I went and corrected it by editing the YYMMDDa.log file without keeping a
copy.  I have also had a mysterious entry ID0 appear in threaded display, despite there being no entry 0; and if
it appears, it appears in two or three places within the list of threaded entries.
