This website is AWESOME! It is so useful and helpful and also user-friendly! Thank you very much!
Thank you Kerrie !

So what's up with the website now?

Scheduled downtime (server maintenance)20 July 2010
This is straight from the web hosting company: the server will be coming down on July 22 between 00:00 CDT and 04:00 CDT for Scheduled Maintenance. This is a 4 hour window for the maintenance, the actual downtime should be no more than 30 minutes.

Returning from India13 July 2010
Wooo! Finally! Can't wait to be back home!

I'll be living back in the south of Belgium for a while, which is a big change for me. I like the agitation and diversity of the capital, but I'll be closer to family so it's all good.

I'll have a lot more time to work on the website. My main challenge will be to find some healthy activities in this small town, to keep my energy and motivation up. I really have no idea what the next year will be like, but maybe that's how it ought to be :)

Thank you for your support during my trip in India! It was very inspiring to have been financially supported by the website while travelling abroad. I made one last boring possibly interesting long winded post on the Posterous blog.
RTK 1 Supplement for Newly Approved General-Use Kanji24 June 2010
From the publisher's page:
In April 2010 the Japanese Ministry approved the addition of 196 characters to the "general-use" kanji list. 39 of these are already included in Remembering the Kanji I. The remaining 157 have been prepared as a special Supplement that may be downloaded here (PDF, 27 pages, 492KB) (22 June 2010 update). They will all be integrated into a new edition of the book currently in preparation.
Thanks to member JimmySeal for the heads up. See RTK 1 Supplement topic on the forums.
Help with a little bit of testing23 June 2010
Thanks to a reminder from member infractus, I have fixed an issue with the "Reconnect" button that appears on the flashcard review page, when the connection is slow or unresponsive.

I would like to update the live site soon, but I would like to get some feedback first to make sure no new bugs were introduced. Read on if you could spare five minutes for testing...
