Dan,
We have added the links you mentioned.
I agree they are key components of AB's presentation to users and
should be there.
If users want it can be a focal point for accessing the various info
sources for AB (we will never get an ideal single desk and of course
freedom of choice means some will always want to work in different
ways).
Also, newcomers might find there way to the UKB via a websearch so
the homepage will lead back to amibroker.com.
Brian.
