I was amazed that the site still runs, apparently still using the same engine.

But it seems that it was a flash site (of course), and archive.org seems to replace Flash Player with "Ruffle" [1]. Either that, or someone of Tobin's team replaced Flash with Ruffle >= 2019.

TIL. https://plugins.jenkins.io/blueocean/

   Blue Ocean status

   Blue Ocean will not receive further functionality updates. 
   Blue Ocean will continue to provide easy-to-use Pipeline visualization, but it will not be enhanced further. It will only receive selective updates for significant security issues or functional defects.

> Be specially careful when installing their extension pack, as it is an evaluation license.

Our company was targeted by Oracle Sales because they detected mere _downloads_ from our IP range. They couldn't prove any installations, but of course wanted the company to pay for commercial licenses.

Im not sure about the details, but in the end I think we bought a couple of licences & then blocked all URLs for the extension pack company-wide.

This works great for password resets.

It does not work if you actually want to send emails, for instance notifications.

That's a really nifty visualisation of the 140 named web colors.
