RE: OSUser status and improvements

Scott,
I would _love_ to see an actual release come from this. I would say,
don't spend too much time on a bunch of fancy stuff, but rather clean up
what needs to be cleaned up, and then let's slap some docs together and
make a 1.0 release. I am more than willing to help out where you need
the help, just drop me a note any time.
