Actually I was looking at a screenshot someone sent me because I couldn't
seem to access it even after changing the hosts file (I assumed it was
recent, but I guess not).  It just looked like the regular Bitcoin page
(despite doing a ping on the command line and seeing the expected IP).  Was
there a specific link to click on?    Am I blind?

Is there a process we should use to submit how we think our program should
be represented on the clients page?
