> nice work steve!

Thanks.  Its been fun, taking off-the-shelf stuff (w3 daemons and
browsers, wais) and writing small conversion scripts.

We're hoping to do something like that.  I have a gateway to our local
problem report system done, but haven't really made use of it yet.
I'm planning to extract the most severe problem reports from the list
of open problems and use it to generate a system status page.
