Hi Yuval,

Sorry for not replying to the mail you sent directly to me a while =20
ago. I've been busy.

The tool has not been maintained in any systematic way for a long =20
time; it was intended more as an example to accompany a NANOG talk on =20
tools/scripting than a product in any conventional sense. The idea =20
was to give people a starting point from which they could move =20
forward with their own customisation.

If you're interested in sending me patches, I can certainly look at =20
them though.

Thanks,


Joe
