[Erik Uzureau]

PS. If anyone is considering building this and would like to share the
code with the OL repository, we would (again) be delighted. Please
contact me or any of the other PSC members and we can set you up with
wiki/trac passwords, access to a sandbox, and help you with
code/design decisions.
