Hmmm. As it's a pet project I happen to be coaxing along, I've only  
been putting detail about it on my wiki user page. Perhaps now it's  
been in use for a couple of months with the IAEP list content I should  
move it out into the community hierarchy. Thanks for the hint. I'll  
take a look and see where it could go. Ideally, with its current use,  
it should be near IAEP list access/information.
