Argh, it should have been http:// and not http://. I'll fix that.

Yes, it isn't a very fancy company website / logo ;)
The story is that Earl from Zillabit had registered the domain back in
2004 or so. When I started maintaining it in 2009 he contacted me about
it and we agreed that he kept on paying for it but point to DNS servers
I control. As we discussed in Edinburgh, it is not really optimal that
we don't have it under our control, so I have recently been in contact
with him again, and the domain is now transferred to me.
