[Pachy-Dev] Fwd: [Pachy-users] Macrons in zoom page text

[Joshua Archer]

Instead of cross-posting and duplicating administration issues, I'm  
just forwarding this message from pachy-users, and encourage all  
members on the dev list to join the users list to catch items that  
might be more aimed at the dev list.

I don't happen to have an answer for this one -- I defer to our  
template experts :).
