+<h1>qmsk.web</h1>
+<p>
+    Having grown tired of using the various massive Python web frameworks that no mere user could ever hope to
+    understand or modify, and having already learned how fun it was to write plain CGI scripts in python, one day I
+    stumbled across WSGI.
+</p>
+<p>
+    WSGI is a low-level interface that provides the bare essentials needed to write something that can operate over
+    HTTP. Working at the WSGI-level gave me the oppertunity to develop my own "framework" code which I could really
+    understand and use properly, since I had written it myself.
+</p>
+<p>
+    The result eventually became <strong>qmsk.web</strong>, a simple library providing what I, myself,
+    needed to write <a href="/projects/www.qmsk.net">www.qmsk.net</a> and <a href="/projects/irclogs2">irclogs2</a>.
+    I do not claim qmsk.web to be suitable for use by anyone else, and might recommend other projects like
+    <a href="http://werkzeug.pocoo.org/">werkzeug</a> for general use, as they provide more features and less bugs in
+    a better package with better documentation, but qmsk.web works well for me.
