+  <h1>Background and conference papers</h1>
+  <p class="lead">
+    KST4Contest grew out of practical contest operation at DM5M. Individual
+    functions started with concrete problems encountered while using the ON4KST
+    chat; later development was also influenced by analysis of archived chat data.
