An xml based file would seem the most logical choice. Granted xml itself might not be so easy for a newbie to edit but someone (maybe me) can easily create a Perl or PHP frontend to make it easier. In fact a Perl/PHP app could also be used to manage access and log changes. Although I have faith in the Wiki system we have to be careful about defacement - no-one will be happy when their channel icons are suddenly replaced with pornographic images *eek* This either means all changes have to be approved first or that access is limited. If channel icons are controlled by the system then issues of copyright have to be resolved too. Will the icons be stored on the server or will it simply point to other sites (Lyngsat?). Someone will also have to create the client side handling - either built into Myth (preferred) or a third party app? -- Stuart Morgan _______________________________________________ mythtv-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-dev
