Hi everybody,

I am planning to take the try-GNU-APL website offline.

The website has not been working for some time without anybody complaining
about that. That tells me that taking the site offline should not make a difference.

In the recent past, web technologies have become more and more frustrating and have
developed into a direction that makes it impossible for me as a non-web designer
to keep up with them.

The lastest problem (error message in firefox:
Uncaught DOMException: The operation is insecure.)
seems to be related to CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing) and it was unfortunately
not the first time that this kind of web nonsense has caused try-GNU-APL to fail.

However, I will not remove the GNU APL as a server feature from GNU APL, in case someone
else would like to operate a website similar to try-GNU-APL.

My long-term plan is to streamline the GNU APL source code and to remove more unused features.
The next candidates for removal are the GNU APL docker container and the Erlang/Elixir interface.
If anybody should be using them then please let me know.

Best Regards,
Jürgen Sauermann
