I cannot do a redirect, since I do not have access to the DNS. You could
do that, certainly.
However, note that XP has offered to put up a place holder page. Since
you (or I for that matter) could host this, it might be the best
solution. We could get it up quickly, and we could customize it w/ our
new logo and so forth.
What do you (and everyone else) think?
Cheers
David
