(...) Not thinking of it; already offered it. (...) Why do you say it's a bad idea?

I'm pushing Todd's hot button on purpose here a bit, but I suspect that even though it's GPL he might not host it because Todd has a bit of NIH, which is what I was referring to vis-a-vis cathedral vs. bazaar.

(...) Well, if it needs to be hosted elsewhere I can do that. I can also look into giving a single trustworthy person limited telnet access to my account to actually install and get it working. Or Todd can host it and I can just use it. :) (25 years ago, 18-Aug-99, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.admin.general)
