ICYG Backend Work

I built the ICYG website on Zope bit by bit, putting together the pages by brute force. In this context, that means I had separate page templates for the main site pages, even though they shared many similar elements. Today I applied the lessons of the excellent ZopeZoo tutorial and converted the backend objects to use Zope inheritance as much as possible. It's reduced the amount of objects powering the site and has introduced a logical hierarchy that will make it easy for me to extend the site in the future.

I also tried to clean up the site's CSS, although the scheme and elements have stayed the same. Enjoy!

Just an FYI, inadvertent http:// inserted in the ZopeZoo link.

Thanks, fixed.
