That's ok, it just needs to be tested a bit more. I am willing to
install it on my server and let other people log in and test it.

I think other people will join in and help to fix some showstoppers.
One last show stopper for me is to implement the autobuilders. Then it
should be ready to do what I want.

Right. The best thing is to just delegate the work. :) Anyway, it'd be
really helpful for me if you could write me a bit thoughts about my
other email about the autobuilders. Then I (or others) can try to give
it a shot and implement it.

Thanks,
