111 Added <a href="/office/books.html">books</a>! About 2.5 shelves are
112 there, minus a whole lot that weren't readily accessible from the
113 Library of Congress. Getting all of the books on there is going to
114 be a tough job. These are, by the way, managed by good-old (or new?)
115 CEO. Thanks to Ryan Golbeck and Petio for their hard work getting
116 ISBN numbers onto disc.

126 well as the current term are determined automagically now. Lots of
127 work done. Some more stubs up (office etc.). And I introduce cow -
128 that is, the CSC Ontological Webalizer - which is just a wrapper
129 around libxslt with some extra xpath functions. It is now what is
130 being used to build the site, instead of xsltproc.

133 About/Memberlist stub up. Made the CSC logo gold. Isn't it nifty?
