Hi,

I noticed the URL of jimimeinfo is out of date (404) on this page[1]
under section 'Current implementors'. It should be changed from [2] to
[3] probably. I also attached a git patch if you find this more
convenient than fixing it manually yourself.

The original homepage is not available anymore and the original author
(Andy Hedges) moved the source code to GitHub a few years ago.

Thanks,
Sebastian
