<p>This page is largely obsolete in favor of sutff like my <a
href="http://c2.com/cgi-bin/wiki?DanConnolly">wiki bio</a>, <a
href="http://www.advogato.org/person/connolly/">Advogato info</a> and the <a
href="http://rdfig.xmlhack.com/">RDF IG scratchpad</a>.</p>

<p>This is [used to be] a collection of information relevant to support
requests that I get about the various contributions I've made. The object of
the game is to refer folks to these pages rather than draft responses
individually.</p>

      not widely used).</dd>
