Yep, quiet.  Well I take it that you looked at cmdschedule.pl and found it
to your liking.  I've been also quietly working behind the sceens working
on mirrored content issues (LDP mostly) and htdig.   Right now I don't
have a lot of direction, and no defined projects seem to be on my plate
or maybe I'm too tired to remember...

Anyways, if there's something I'm missing let me know.  

FYI, I've basically given up on the kbmirrormanage script I was working so
hard on prior to alpha.  There turned out to be too many transactional,
locking, and permissions issues that I couldn't work around without some
really MAJOR effort.  There just ain't anyway to do it the way I was
planning it with the goals we had.  Maybe if we redefine the goals I can
pick it up again and make it reality.
 
Well it's been a 12 hour day here at the office and I really need a
shower.  L8r.
