Hi Martin,

Fixed a number of issues today (now at 0.6 beta):
- unicast sites were showing up as "multicast without a  
beacon" (thanks Martin)
- Missing a known entry from the list of possible beacons (thanks Derek)
- now sub-sorting global node list by institution (thanks Jason)
- changed layout of individual node listings to avoid long URL problems
- don't show blanks for missing information
- castigate those nodes which don't list an in-room node telephone ;-)

Keep the bug reports and portal suggestions coming, preferable
in the feedback forum:  http://agcentral.org/forums/misc/agcentral

Based on discussions at the last town hall, we're starting to consider
an equipment list feature ... more on this in the feedback forum.

Cheers,
Darran.
