So this website is hosted with IOMART, a cloud service provider with call-us pricing, and it stopped working because a few people clicked the link from here. That is really not impressive.

Feeling very nostalgic about getting interested in XML and XSLT circa 2000-2001 and all that Semantic Web stuff. Amazed to see that people were still taking it seriously nearly 10 years later https://www.flickr.com/groups/xmlsummerschool2010 https://www.flickr.com/groups/xmlsummerschool2010 and that they're still going! I hope they have a lovely time!
