Width: auto does weird things to image
Writing up a bug

<p>A paragraph of description</p>
<p>A second paragraph.</p>

April Web Standards Group Meeting
Last night’s Brisbane meeting was a roaring success.

- an interstate visitor tells us we are far ahead of Melbourne in
catering. Better pick up the slack, guys
Tony Aslett’s late notice talk on […]
