Let's see, I've moved a copy of the RHLUFAQ to cran, so we have something
to play with.  I still need to move over the CGI's, but I'm waiting for
Roger to setup a script alias cgi directory.

I've also installed Analog 3.1, you can view the reports where are
generated at 4am local time: http://linuxkb.seul.org/analog/ Probably
should password protect it later.  Since I don't have the password for
linuxkb, I had to run analog via my crontab.  :-( Would be nice if we
could su to linuxkb.

I've also uploaded Ht://Dig.  Something isn't working right with the merge
program, so I'm going to have to play with it some.  

The only other thing is a CVS/RCS tree to start playing with.  But we
should probably start planning things out before we try to code it. :-)  

Also, I've done another revision of the annoucement, and uploaded it to
cran, and made it the default index.html.  Please take a look at it soon.
It would be nice to make an annoucement in the next couple of days.

I think we can use my existing forms with a few changes:

1) Make it less Red Hat centric
2) Add a field for keywords to allow better searching
3) Seperate the "auto update" form from the general use form
4) Fix the race conditions and add || croak () to each open
5) Install/configure Procmail for the email->entry feature
6) Seperate the script from the passwords.  Use crypt function to compare
entered password and password stored in a file.

Also, I looked at the log report for my existing FAQ which allows people
to choose one of 4 formats:

1) Frames & Java
2) Frames & no Java
3) No Frames & Java
4) No Frames & No Java

Statistically, the frames were 3.4 times more popular than the non-frames
and the JavaScript enabled was 3.2 times more popular than the non-java
I think we should take that into conderation when we design the site.

Oh, and we need:
1) A color scheme
2) A button people can put on their site to link to us

I also see that MHonArc is installed... Cool.  We can use it to keep an
archive of this list.

So I don't want to hear "there's nothing to do"! :-)
