     <p>Spothole is a utility to aggregate "spots" from amateur radio DX clusters and xOTA spotting sites, and provide an open JSON API as well as a website to browse the data.</p>
     <p>While there are several other web-based interfaces to DX clusters, and sites that aggregate spots from various outdoor activity programmes for amateur radio, Spothole differentiates itself by supporting a large number of data sources, and by being "API first" rather than just providing a web front-end. This allows other software to be built on top of it.</p>
     <p>The API is deliberately well-defined with an <a href="/apidocs/openapi.yml">OpenAPI specification</a> and auto-generated <a href="/apidocs">API documentation</a>. The API delivers spots in a consistent format regardless of the data source, freeing developers from needing to know how each individual data source presents its data.</p>
-    <p>Spothole itself is also open source, Public Domain licenced code that anyone can take and modify. <a href="https://git.ianrenton.com/ian/metaspot/">The source code is here</a>. If you want to run your own copy of Spothole, or start modifying it for your own purposes, the README file there has all the details.</p>
