What do you folks think of the new format of CACM?  I don't think it
is appropriate for a professional journal.  I find the fonts used for
the table of contents and article sections difficult to scan.  The
page used to start articles look more like something in an ad, and
thus skippable, rather than something to read.  The whole job looks
like they either are amateurs flush with the power of desktop publishing
or the hired a layout designer who knew nothing about how the journal
is used.  Talk about bad user interfaces ...
