   Format: MarkdownItexI have tried to brush-up the entry [[site]] a bit. * rewrote the former Idea-section * gave the definition of morphism of sites in the general form (flat functors instead of left exact, since we don't demand finite limits in the first place) * wrote out most details of the proof that a morphism of sites induces a geometric morphism of sheaf toposes over them * reorganized the Examples-section, added a subsection with "classes of examples" and one with "specific examples". There is plenty of room for further improvements.

   • rewrote the former Idea-section

   • gave the definition of morphism of sites in the general form (flat functors instead of left exact, since we don’t demand finite limits in the first place)

   • wrote out most details of the proof that a morphism of sites induces a geometric morphism of sheaf toposes over them

   There is plenty of room for further improvements.

   Format: MarkdownItex> flat functors instead of left exact It is a matter of how modern we are. Your convention is that you use left exact only in the context of finitely complete categories, but many people use words flat and left exact fully interchangeably. On the other hand, I like that one considers sites which are not necessarily finitely complete.

   Format: MarkdownItexAt [[site]] there is a strange 'reference' (\ref{LemmaForClassifyingToposes}) that looks as if it is left over from a cut-and-paste from a latex document. Does anyone know to what it 'refers'?
