a couple of things at that time i had spent less then a hour on obs and had
added 1 dependancy to a file and that was it. As such at the moment im
happy for someone to quickly check the diffs and make sure i'm getting
everything write before i have access to do it myself. Over the next month
i will be living across 2 houses going overseas for 10 days and have a
whole lot of stuff going on. After that period I'm moving into 1 of those
houses and i have another week off work. So in that period i may look at
taking up more responsability and if doing the nightly update only takes
running 1 script I might look at doing that. Until then i won't really have
a test box just a laptop i have access to every few nights.
