Hmm.  Gives me 403 forbidden.  I think you're right that he has posted
a URL before.  But the point is still, if you're going to say "you
should take a look at this" you need to make it easy to find "this",
or nobody's going to go look at it.  *Every time* I mention Multiarray
(http://www.dsource.org/projects/multiarray) or some other project I'm
involved with, I provide a link.  If you actually want people to look
at something that's what you gotta do.  Just common sense, really.
Especially when the name for the thing is something generic that
Google probably won't work on.
