 A www.xiph.org style guide
 ==========================
 
+Behind the Scenes
+-----------------
+
 *	Four-column tabs for indentation.
 
 *	Keep lines to 100 columns or fewer.
 
-*	Due to cross-platform and build restrictions, we can’t use symlinks or hard links.
-	Instead, use HTTP redirects in .htaccess files. For more information, see the Apache 2
-	information on the Redirect directive at
-	<http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_alias.html#redirect>.
-
-*	Redirect to <http://www.xiph.org/>. Not to, for example, <http://xiph.org/>.
-
 *	Use UTF-8. In particular, use proper apostrophes and quotes (U+2018–U+201E) and
         en and em dashes.
 
+*	Prefer <x y='z'> to <x y="z">. <x y=z> is an absolute no-no.
+
+*	Close tags that need closing. <p>-as-paragraph-separator has gone the way of the dodo.
+
+
+Spelling, Grammar, and Punctuation
+-----------
 *	For em dashes, in English, leave no space between the dash and the words—like this.
 
 *	For the love of all that’s holy, leave no space between a question mark and its
         preceding sentence.
 
-*	(not sure if I want this one in stone or not) Prefer verbs in URLs to adjectives when
-	possible. For example, prefer "/speex/compare/" to "/speex/comparison/". This ought to be
-	done with care; "/foobar/document/" is plain silly as it invites the user to actually document
-	our stuff, rather than read documentation.
+*	Do not write "CODEC" in all caps.
 
+*	"Copyright © 2004 Xiph.Org" and "Copyright (c) 2004 Xiph.Org" are redundant;
+	prefer "© 2004 Xiph.Org" to both. Failing that, drop the "(c)".
+
+
+URLs and Linkage
+----------------
+
+*	Due to cross-platform and build restrictions, we can’t use symlinks or hard links.
+	Instead, use HTTP redirects in .htaccess files. For more information, see the Apache 2
+	information on the Redirect directive at
+	<http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_alias.html#redirect>.
+
+*	Redirect to <http://www.xiph.org/>. Not to, for example, <http://xiph.org/>.
+
+
 Open Questions
 --------------
 *	Tone: How should we write? I’d like to display a visible sense of humor on the site.
 
+*	Prefer verbs in URLs to adjectives when possible. For example, prefer "/speex/compare/" to
+	"/speex/comparison/". This ought to be done with care; "/foobar/document/" is plain silly
+	as it invites the user to actually document our stuff, rather than read documentation.

+<dl>
+	<dt>Speex</dt>
+	<dd>
+		Speex supports intensity stereo encoding
+		and 32 kHz sampling
+	</dd>
+
+	<dt>iLBC</dt>
+	<dd>
+		iLBC frames are encoded completely
+		independently; while this provides better
+		quality when 10% (or more) of the packets
+		are being dropped, this makes the codec
+		suboptimal for clean line conditions.

+# Roadmap
+
+## What We’re Doing
+We’re implementing and debugging new features such as a denoiser, echo canceller, and a
+jitter buffer. In addition, we’re testing out a new
+<acronym title='voice activity detector'>VAD</acronym> and writing a fixed-point version
+of the Speex libraries.
+
+## How You Can Help
+Consider…
+
+* writing a plugin for your favorite audio player
+* proposing Speex to a standards organization body looking for a voice compression codec
+* help make Speex an <abbr title="Internet Engineering Task Force">IETF</abbr>-blessed standard
+* helping us finish our fixed-point version of the Speex C library
