Website MI-Partners updated

Finally I had some time to work on the MI-Partners website. It now is a bi-lingual site made with Drupal 6.1.

I'm quite pleased with it. The theme is still very basic, at least it is better than the 1 plain text page we had till now.

Koorneef.net updated to Drupal 5.1

Better late than never. The upgrade went smooth. A few modules are not upgraded (filestore2 and fscache) but that's not too big a problem. I just need to convert the nodes generated by this module to generic nodes with attachments.
