--------------------------------------------------

Hi Camille,

Yes, I wanted to enhance it as well. I was actually planning enhance it to a 
audit log and have a tool called zk data tree timeline. 

Requirements were
* For a given path show the create, modify, delete sequence for a given range 
of time.
* Given a session tell when was it created, who created it (unfortunately i 
cant get ip from transaction log), when was it closed.

There were few more things I wanted but dont remember now.


The Zk time line tool i had in mind was a applet with a time slider. It show 
the zk data tree. One should be able to use the slider to move back and forth 
in time and see the tree. This is very useful in debugging issues.

I have written a tool(not ui) for my own project which parses the ZK 
transaction log and actually gives us the ability to know sequence of events 
that happened in the application. Unfortunately this is very specific to my 
application and others may not be able to use this. 

Let me know what you about a tool like this. If there is enough interest, I can 
spend time making it generic enough for others to use.
