It is.

Johannes is a former MindSpring employee; we started the project when
he worked here. He has since gone on to another job. No, MindSpring is
not sanctioning the project, and we are both doing it in our spare time.
MindSpring is donating the web site and the mailing list. MindSpring is
not at present running Dents anywhere, but I hope for that to change once
we get it cleaned up a little. In answer to your question, though, this
is very much a personal project and not an official MindSpring project.
