About IPv6 Intelligence

Presentation and backend

Basic design templates and stylesheets originate from OpenPA.net in an effort to save time and resources and concentrate on getting the basic content up. Dynamic solutions were evaluated (wiki, database-driven CMS/weblog-engines) but for the time being discarded due to the limited time and resources available. This may change in the future.

There is a stylesheet for printing out single pages of this site. The output is sanitized w.r.t. the requirements of printing on single paper sheets. An additional script (in Javascript) provides annotation of external links (i.e. their URLs) as footnotes on the page (links with http:// in front to pages which are not on this site). The implementation is inspired by the ALA article: Improving Link Display for Print and makes use of the Footnote Links code from Aaron Gustafson.

A complete, printable PDF version of this site may be provided in the future, if interest arises and time permits. Conversion and compilation from the single HTML pages into a complete PDF would probably be based on the process developed for OpenPA: Print Version.

This site is reachable by native IPv6.
