Manics.nl is currently in archive status. This means no more updates or edits to the database. The site will remain online as an archive, however, as you may have noticed, many entries are by now dated or incorrect.

The makers of manics.nl simply don't have the time anymore to keep the website up to date; jobs and other real-life obligations got in the way. A call for dedicated editors via Facebook has gotten virtually no response. This leaves us with only this option. However, if you are interested in contributing in any way, give us a shout at mail@manics.nl.

Many thanks to all of you, especially to those who gave us positive feedback over the years.

write your own reference

As you have probably noticed, manics.nl has not been updated for a long time. This is mostly due to real-life-obligations of the creators. After some consideration and a call for suggestions on our Facebook-page, we have decided to give visitors the chance to become an editor, and write their own reference-articles. If you are interested in contributing to manics.nl, please send your draft for an article (preferably about a JFPL-reference) to mail@manics.nl. We will try to reply asap.

a brand new manics.nl

nospam@example.com (T) — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 12:00:00 +0100

as you can probably see, we've made some pretty huge changes to the site. it took us several months to turn our old, static HTML-based site into a PHP-driven one, but we hope you'll all be happy with the change.

Note that the new site is still experiencing a lot of hickups an weird glitches, which we will try to repair asap. also, not all pages are fully linked up or look the way they should. we're working on it, be nice with us regarding this. Many thanks to Garvin and the people at www.s9y.org for helping us out.

However, we always like to hear how much you love or hate this new development. Comments and constructive criticism are more than welcome: please use the (also brand new) contact form, or visit our myspace.
