I am out updating Online References at EJMAS. What are the best Shorinji Kempo websites?

Here, I'm interested mostly in reasonably reliable history, traditions, and so on, rather than who is best connected, or even who is the best teacher. After all, while one cannot reasonably learn to box by reading about it, there is no good reason why one cannot learn history, traditions, and so on by reading about them.

Thanks!

I wonder if the update will still include the reference to the "court case" from Donn Draegger's book... is that source reliable?

I might be a bit biased, but I like www.luskg.org ;)

Also, while bskf.org is borked you can use www.bskf.org.uk but I think this might just be temporary.
