irishtune.info survived yet another hardware fatality (this time the power supply to my main tune-indexing computer). All is well now but it did put work on database content on pause for a couple weeks there. Meanwhile work continues on the "major new upgrade" to the Web site features I mentioned previously (see March 10 posting below). I am open to more beta testers for it - contact me if interested.

irishtune.info survived the death of my Mac Mini's hard drive and the forced transition from OS 10.4 to 10.5 on the new Mini. It meant several of my utilities to generate the graphics for the first 2 bars of each tune had to be modified and recompiled. Whew, puzzles solved now!
