20,000 Unique visits announces an imminent CMS upgrade
You have done it! We have passed the 20,000 unique visits mark in less than a year. So, there must be a niche for this website! One reason is that the site is popular and is also mentioned on several other websites. As a result, we feature on the first page of google with just 'diptera' as search term.

This is also the time to inform you that the upgrade of the CMS from v5.00 to v5.01 is imminent. That is, it will follow sometime in the next two weeks. The chances are that you will hardly notice, but I thought to warn you none the less. After the upgrade I will try again if the newsletter system is compliant with the host set-up, so you may expect that something will drop in your mailbox (at least, if you are a member and have subscribed). Another upcoming change will be that the Private Message System will get a make-over and it should be possible to save outgoing messages, too. In the longer run there will also be an update of the Diptera Gallery.
Oh yes, I am still working on the hosting thing. I have not forgotten, because especially the Gallery should benefit from that.

Keep up the good work, you all!

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.

Appreciate it, Tony Irwin! I got the hint to use the key next to Langton and Pinder key for females of Chironomidae. So no specific queries, except the keys... I will keep this on my list and hope th
