Well that certainly did the trick. We now have 12 developers. Welcome 
everyone.

I thought it was worthwhile at this point reiterating some of the rules of
nms so you know what you're getting into.

* All code must run under Perl 5.004_04.

* Only modules included with Perl 5.004_04 should be used.

* All code should run under "use strict" and "-wT" without errors.

* If you want to enhance or extend Matt's original functionality, then please
  use a variable called $EMULATE_MATTS_CODE. If this variable is set to a
  true value then your new functinoality should be switched off.

* Please keep the docs up to date.

If you have any ideas of new work that you'd like to do on any of the scripts
then please announce it here first. After announcing it, please wait at 
least 24 hurs before starting. If, after 24 hours, no-one has objected to
your suggestions then please go ahead. As a corollary to that, if you see 
someone suggesting something here that you don't agree with, then please
speak up.

That's all for now. Thanks for getting involved.
