I have informed you last time that some difficulties had occurred from the transfer of the files from old to new software, due to incompatibility of code, and I needed to learn the code in order to rebuild the site in the new way.

Well, I am rather pleased to tell you that I have overcome the task of learning the logic (new for me) of web-site building through code. I have built new layouts for the different page types and began to rebuild the individual pages in the new way. The look was refreshed just a little, to keep up with the times, although I have kept the main features as they were.

For the next weeks I shall be refreshing ALL the pages of this site into the new layout. This operation also includes fixing all the errors and broken links that occurred during the transfer, making sure that everything works as it should.

Please note: during these few weeks broken links to pages not yet updated are inevitable. I apologize for the temporary inconvenience and once again ask for your patience. I promise to be as quick as possible about this change, but still - there are thousands of pages to update... See progress described (What's New page, NEWS section).

My mother's professional library has been unpacked and moved to the newly received bookcases. The books and postcards are yet to be processed and catalogued, put to order, so I may know what there is and use them.
