Not gotten any better at updating this thing, and it's not looking promising for two months in Wales (though maybe!). It's not that I haven't been in a really great mood, I think I'm just realizing how much infrastructure I've built and sometimes I get tired of maintaining it. You'll live. Only I read this anyway.

My first Protoweb restoration in almost two years is live! This one's for the early Opera Software site.

For a bit, it was because I genuinely didn't feel like updating it, and now I have a bit of a pileup of stuff to cover, so let's not let that put me off further. I'll split them up into sections.
