Changelog

17-Feb-2000
Back from holiday. Maintenance resumed.

08-Feb-2000
I will be away (on holiday) from 12-Feb-2000 to 12-Mar-2000, so it is unlikely there will be any maintenance on these pages until I get back. Minor updates to Colour article.

20-Jan-2000
Broke articles into smaller pieces, so that as many as possible are under 10k for improved download speed (there are still a few large articles though). As a consquence, changed structure of RHS navbar; items are now grouped under general headings. Added Prev and Next buttons. Rewrote Colour and Animation article. Updated Summary.

17-Jan-2000
Added changelog page. Wrote Errors, finished Program Classification.
