-<h3>Backups</h3>
-
-<p>
-<strong>We strongly recommend you keep your own backups of your SQL schema and data.</strong> Your MySQL data is not stored in AFS.
-Although we use various technical means to try to ensure the availability of your data (including hardware-level redundancy and real-time replication), we can make no guarantees about the reliability of the service and access to your data.
-</p>
-
-<h3>Quotas</h3>
-
-<p>
-By default, new users can create up to <strong>5 databases</strong>, consuming a total of <strong>50 megabytes</strong> of SQL data.
-The system will periodically check your database sizes and suspend creation of new data (INSERT statements) if your total usage exceeds your allotted quota.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-This service is not designed to store gratuitous amounts of information in the BLOB or BINARY formats. Extra quota space will not be allotted to users for this type of data.
-Users should instead store these types of data in AFS and use SQL tables only to catalogue it.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-<strong>Always use this interface to create and drop databases.</strong>
-Although you can drop any of your databases outside this interface, doing so will not relinquish your rights to that database and will therefore still count against your quota.
-</p>

 <p>
 Although this service has been designed with reliability in mind, the SIPB MySQL service should not be used to host critical applications that cannot tolerate downtime.
-<? /* We may, of course, suspend or terminate your MySQL account at any time, for any or no reason. */ ?>
 We perform no query logging, schema or data backups, or any other backups otherwise generally available. You are solely responsible for performing backups of your data.
 We maintain general usage statistics of this service by the MIT community at large.
