It's more dynamic, more responsive and better structured. It also has an important new feature: our online documentation center. Please be aware that we have not yet been able to upload all our documents. We are gradually updating our archives and all the documents on our former website can still be found at old.docip.org.
We are currently putting the finishing touches on this website and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
