        Thanks very much for taking the role. I know it's hard for you to
do it during the week-ends :-)

        I suggested using php3 too. But as long as the license of the
software is Free Software and is not incompatible with the GPL, I don't
see a reason to refuse it. In the case of shoutstats I'm embarassed because
it's 100% dependent on a purely non free software (shoutcast).

        Cheers,
