The immediate reason for this was a nasty malware-infection which has now been cleaned up thanks to my friends and colleagues Kim Gjerstad and <a href=\"http:\/\/socialdoc.net\/barry-greenwald\/\">Barry Greenwald<\/a> and our hosting service Web Hosting Canada. However, it was time for the blog to change anyway. I am facing some serious health challenges, and will not be able to write as frequently as I used to. There was a time when I attempted to cover most significant developments in the world of documentary as well as presenting some of my own work, posting every week. From now on, I will write less frequently, and will focus on issues which are very close to my heart, or on people with whom I have a special relationship.<\/p>\n<p>One of my upcoming posts will deal with\u00a0<a title=\"La grande invasion\" href=\"http:\/\/www.stephanehorel.fr\/doc\/grandeinvasion\/\" target=\"_blank\">La grande invasion, (the great invasion)<\/a>\u00a0a film about the devastating impact of real estate development gone wild in the Laurentians north of Montreal.
