Nothing particular, i was just thinking it's cool to have a centralised
way of dealing with logs when i was writing the list of potential todo
stuff. Not a big deal if it's not done.

I would preferabilly have a way to get information in raw xml and post
order with GET or POST rather than a hard coded web interface so
everybody could use those features and intergated it in any application they
would be developping. So it looks like that's the way you are already
choosing.

I have forwarded your mail to our mailing list. As soon as we know
exactly how the student project is doing we will post news here.

This sounds wise.

Ok. My personnal todo list now have on top of the heap: docbook rtfming
:)

I will keep in touch as soon as i have read the doc, and wrote something
that start to be usefull.
