I'm German as well, but cannot understand your question. Can you write an 
email in German directly to me?

Ich kann Deine Frage leider nicht verstehen. Kannst Du sie mir direkt in 
Deutsch per Email schicken?

Ok, added to the wishlist.

I had that request more than once. The problem with it is that I cannot 
implement it, since he have no LDAP server here at our institute to try it. So 
if someone teaches me how to do LDAP authorization correctly, I can put it in, 
but not before.

The width of the textarea after pressing reply is too large. 
The problem is that the algorithm that searches for the longes line
looks for the next '\r' which it does not find and therefore takes the
number of characters in the text to be the width of the longest line.
To search for '\n' instead should solve the problem.  Please find the 
diff output below.

  419   Thu Jul 31 16:02:41 2003 Warning Heiko Scheith.scheit@mpi-hd.mpg.deBug reportLinux2.3.9not proper HTML
I just upgraded from 2.3.5 to 2.3.9.

There are some errors in the generated HTML.  Most of the time
the browser renders everything correctly but sometimes not.  Please
check especially (http://validator.w3.org/):

- http://midas.psi.ch/elogdemo/Database/7
    There are too many <table> tags before the attribute list:
    'Type', 'Operating system',...  This should be just one table and
    not each row a separate table.  Also the first <table> tag lies
    outside a <td> tag of the enclosing table.
