Hello,

as you might have noticed, this was our April Fool's joke.

Irony is not a matter of age, but of meaning of life and ability to cope
"with the most serious subjects with sincere, studied triviality" (if
I'm not wrong, it's taken from one of Oscar Wilde's fine comedies).

If you are not able to appreciate it, it's your problem, not ours. Keep
on doing even the best IP set-top boxes in your serious, professional,
black-and-white world. We'll be glad to go on coding, having fun and
spending our lives smiling and making fun of ourselves.

Regards,
