Hello and a syntax error on your 'Register' page

Very glad to be here, a long time Ubuntu user escaping Unity and changes to GNOME.

Just thought I should mention that on your 'Register' page, the required field:

What is the output of "date -u +%jXfce|sha256sum|sed 's/\W//g'" if you run it in a terminal emulator?

contains a syntax error that makes it impossible to produce the check sum in a terminal.  At the end of the line,

's/\W//g'"

should read

's/\W//g'"

that is,

'"
rather than

"'.

This difference isn't very clear on my screen, so just to clarify--the apostrophe needs to precede the quotation mark, rather than vice versa.

Cheers,

mike
