<div class="moz-cite-prefix">A short Ur/Web overview there would be
fantastic! I'm a bit skeptical that such short documents are
sufficiently helpful, but it never hurts to have more information
out there. I don't see myself finding the time to write one soon,
unfortunately; but, again, I expect a tutorial written by someone
else would be more useful, anyway.<br>

<div>I found the following which gives a great overview of
both languages:</div>

<div>Perhaps someone could write something similar for
