	Speaking as the current maintainer of the lamers script, I 
welcome your modifications.


	Moreover, this gives me an excellent opportunity to start 
discussion of an idea I've had bouncing around in my head for quite 
some time -- I've always wanted to do an enhanced centralized version 
of lamers, one where people all over the world send raw summarized 
data to a central address, where all this information is put together 
and then checked.

	Indeed, I even own a domain name that could be very well suited 
to hosting something like this, and I'm in the process of moving it 
to a system where I've got complete control of the virtual machine, 
and should be able to run suitable scripts to process these sorts of 
things.

	What do you think?  Would you folks be interested in helping me 
to create this centralized lamers process?  If I could give you a 
script that you could run on a nightly or weekly basis and would send 
me the data, would you be willing to do so?
