By accident I found your message above. I am not sure if this helps but
some years ago I published the statements after this email.
On an unrelated matter - do you know how to contact the owners of QPQ?

Some early QPQ servers had a bug which removed data between quotation
marks within comments. This made it difficult to hide items within a
comment tag. A reasonable workaround for these servers was to use a
JavaScript tag instead. Incidentally putting a 'return' at the end of
every ssi and html page prevented these servers issuing spurious
characters.
