They no doubt used Jade (or DSSSL, can't remember which) to generate that
evil XHTML, but I still hates it.  <question type="rhetorical"

they could have pretty-printed it.

It's not strictly software, but while I'm on my DNS hobby horse
I really hates the way that given a zone file with a YYYYMMDDnn serial
number Americans sometimes "accidentally" put YYYYDDMMnn; now I can't use
the date for my serial number until 2004.  Which part of "most
significant part first" don't you understand, cowboy?

I suppose I could add another n.  But I'd hate to do that.

PS  Pan won't let me post without something it thinks is a valid email. 
Of course, it didn't bother telling me this when I created the profile.  I
hates it.
There's stuff above here
