RE: request for sample page structure analyses

Hi Janina.
    
    http://packages.gentoo.org/packages/?category=app-accessibility
    
Sticking my nose in again, 

    1.)	There are over 400 links to installable packages. Are these some
    kind of navbar? 

dp. left 10 percent. Huge primary or secondary navigation, packages split, for some reason, by day of the week. Perhaps a historical release date?


    
    2.)	Once past those links, there's a pointer to each application Gentoo Linux provides in support of accessibility. 

dp. Guessing you are talking about 'at-poke' etc?
I'd call this content (except for David P's comments).
Its the main central body of content on the page visually.
 Sections containing text, images, tabular text and links.



    
    3.)	The "footer" seems fairly straight forward and short. But, is     this the place to put a search field?

dp. That's in the right ten percent, vertical split. 
searchbox, link and text block, the legends used in the tables
in the main body.


    
    What I can't tell:
<snip/> 
<off topic>
  Janina, seems like you follow the release of the package you want,
takes you to a page with licences, change logs etc, there you'll find a link to the package homepage. At least thats what I did 
for dasher
</off topic>

    
    Also, I cannot, for the life of me, figure out what the 
    links for the days of the week are all about (Friday, 
    Thursday, Wednesday, etc).


dp. See my guess above.

What Janina didn't see!

header, with logo and contextual navigation.
