Have no fear, it will take only a few moments to do the switch.  The
website is currently using it (I know, as the switch was done by
me personally and I just viewed the source on a few pages) and
I feel that the articles && handbook should probly do it also.  I
shall run this by some others and then hopefully commit a change
soon.
