* docs: drop h1 in headerErik Faye-Lund2019-05-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | It's generally frowned upon to have more than one H1 per document in HTML4. So let's put the text directly inside the header. This means we can drop the flex-based centering, which makes things a bit easier. We also need to change the padding to rem instead of em, because the em has now changed.

* docs: close paragraphs before listsErik Faye-Lund2019-05-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | paragraphs can't contain lists, and attempting to close them after the list just cause an extra, empty paragraph to be created.

* docs: Remove <em> obfuscation on public mailing list addresses.Kenneth Graunke2013-07-251-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Wrapping every character of an email address in <em> looks bizarre, and makes it impossible to read the text. Apparently Brian did this in 2003 to try and obfuscate email addresses and avoid spam. Of course, mesa-*@lists.freedesktop.org are public mailing lists and trivial to find on the internet. So obfuscation buys us nothing (assuming the <em> technique even works at all, which I doubt).
