28 March

10 March

• Added a page about the forthcoming video Nights from the Alhambra, a recording of a concert of Loreena McKennitt.
• Made several small updates and corrections to pages about Loreena McKennitt.

6 February

• Changed the background and text colours of all webpages.
• The background was very dark grey, with the text in white, which made in particular the photos show up nicely. When that colour scheme was introduced, many years ago, there was no problem printing the pages: browsers knew that they had to 'invert' this and use black text on white paper. But with the more modern browsers printing the pages became a problem: light grey text on white paper, which is almost unreadable.
• The choice of the new colour scheme passes the luminoisy contrast ratio of level 3, as recommended by the W3C Web Accessibility initiative to "provide enough contrast between text and its background so that it can be easily read by people with low vision". (The old colour scheme passed level 3 for the main text, but the links only passed level 2.)
• The web pages related to my research work concerning numerical simulations of 2D vortex evolution with a Finite Difference Method are located at another web server and still have the old colour scheme.
