Q 2.0 What is your project?

A 2.0: Something wonderful!

In all seriousness Abbruch is a concept that I'm developing first into a command-line tool to allow users with shell accounts to more easily manage their email filtering.


Q 3.0: Why don't you have a CGI interface to this?

A 3.0:

        Please visit the Abbruch-web SourceForge Project Summary Page (Once online that is...) I'm scheming on a CGI interface and have already whipped up some preliminary HTML mockups for how people could interact with. I've promised my ISP a first look and the option to contribute to the open source effort, or to take them as thier own. Given that it's all based on an open source project so if they bite I may be working on the first rev with them, and not on sourceforge, then again they may become active participants in the whole development. I'll keep people posted via this page and the project annoucements page.
