I've changed all the links on kanji on the FAQ pages to go to EDRDG by default. They had been pointing to Nihongo.monash. 

----------

The details for anyone who is interested:

The kanji links all go to kanji.sljfaq.org's redirection. This used to be something called "minidic.cgi" but is now done by kanji.sljfaq.org/redirect/. For example


should take you to edrdg.

This can be affected by the user's preference at kanji.sljfaq.org, so it will go to wherever the user chose, e.g. jisho.org. I had omitted to update the FAQ links to kanji when I changed over to the /redirect/ system. I only noticed this today but I have urgently updated the thing since it must have been annoying for some users to be stuck waiting for no reply from the monash server.

In tracking down the bug, I also found some other references to the Australian servers in other things and I went ahead and removed them. From a user point of view, this means that the "Australia" option in 


has now disappeared. I doubt anyone was using that but nevertheless it should be removed.

My WWWJDIC Perl module is also updated.
