Site Upgraded
Today we’ve upgraded the software that runs the news portion of the site (the excellent WordPress for those interested), and made a few little tweaks to make the site more pleasant to use, for example we’ve added links to our news archive.
This might be an appropriate time to point that you can syndicate news from this site using our RSS or Atom feed. If you want to take advantage of our syndication feeds but aren’t sure where to start try a google search for rss reader.
