  I missed this message earlier, too many mails.  Ugh.

  Now when I try to connect to that server I get DNS errors.  As it's
 only small you're welcome to mail it to me direct.  Or if you have
 a new home for it if you could let me know that'd be appreciated.

  That's fine.  It's something that I'm aware of as being a problem
 already.  I just never seem to get round to fixing it.    The templating
 system is broken, it should have used HTML::Template, or similar, from
 the start.

  Still too late now ..
