Times change 
I have finally moved away from my previous website host, Servelocity. For too long I have been putting up with a very old and peculiar setup which has curtailed my fun to a great extent. Servelocity (and many others) seem positively backwards in their insistence on hanging on to legacy stable software.
I’ve been developing another section for my website, but I’ve been using XML processing features not available in PHP 4. Now that I’ve shifted to a more modern host and the holidays have come along I can finish off the section and add it to my website :). It is something that I have been developing with help from some researchers at The Open University and hopefully will eventually be published on SourceForge.
During the switch I’ve also taken the chance to change to a much cheaper (and less flexible) hosting package. This unfortunately means that I have had to say goodbye to a lot of content which I was hosting for various people. Although I say ‘unfortunate’ I am actually rather glad to be rid of them, as I no longer have to worry unduly about breaking my website on a whim.

Brother of mine, I am glad to hear you are happy to get rid of my hosting lol. I didn’t even realise you had a blog until grandad told me, so I googled “craig loftus blog” and up you popped, in nice bright and interactive colours, that are black and grey.
Have a merry merry Christmas, and a happy new year
