My take on the revision history layout

Here is my take on what would look better, let me know what you think.

Comment 4 Dana Mison 2010-06-10 00:52:52 UTC
I would still like to have the horizontal line under the rev#/date/author, but that is just a personal aesthetics I think.

I would be quite happy with that layout.

Looks good to me :)

Darrin -- the horizontal line under the rev/date/author looks confusing to me; I need to look twice to work out which description goes with which rev/date/author line; ie, is the rev/date/author line a header or a footer for the change described? I would need a bigger, thicker line to separate the revisions in that case.

Fixed in build: 1.6.3-0.t101
