Looks like they have reverted the delete because I can see the page again. I
have edited it and made it more encyclopedic than promotional.

I have included the "*This Web <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Wide_Web>
software <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_software> related article is
a stub <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Stub>." *comment towards the
end of the page as the contents are not yet complete.

Thanks,
Shiva Kumar H R
