We currently have the ability to do cgi on the web site. If you
have the cgis ready, we can implement this now. I might be able to get
another login to the website as well.
As for the name "afterdoc", is it docs or bugs that is the focus
of the site? I might seem to be a little on the controlling side, but if
you want accurate and uptodate info, it has to remain managed. I'm not
saying that Tigr wll not manage it, on the contrary; but what I am saying
is that in the eyes of the user, it must be obvious. One domain is
already too much from some people. :)
