Canonical may well want me to use Launchpad for the results, instead of just web pages, but we'll see. If we do use the web page approach, I am not sure I care enough to do much about the layout. But we'll see. I'll keep you posted about any changes I make that are not Canonical/Ubuntu specific. > A rewrite into Python that does the same thing isn't as attractive, of > course.
