Jeremy's script screen scraped all the html pages, IIRC, and then threw them into a db, from which is nag scripts were driven. All the backend stuff should still work even with a better front-end data sucker, and I propose that he check his stuff into nondist somewhere so the lot of us can tweak and tune it.

This seems like A Plan.

Cheers, M. PS: Some fiddling means one can now visit http://python.net/crew/mwh/py/bug/<num> or http://python.net/crew/mwh/py/patch/<num> and get redirected to the appropriate place on sf. The long & hard to type urls were getting on my nerves.
