when Dr Kalam was there there was his team which managed the site,
after he moved out, he migrated it to www.abdulkalam.com along with
all his speeches during his tenure, but later leaving few presidential
addreses, most are now missing (must be that RB or GOI decided that
all his speeches as president may not be outside in public domain!)..
 meanwhile management of the website has fallen back upon NIC, which
is using its old setup (of Windows/IIS) .. much of the site being
similar to what it was before Dr Kalam got it changed, with just
little cosmetic changes! After new president was sworn in, the site
was down for couple of weeks, with throwing up 404's or no content.

 (before Dr Kalams site went down i did manage to download abt 1GB of
it, mostly all speeches)
