Does anyone know if there is a publicly queryable (is that a word?) repository of software versions out there on the Interwebz? Since that makes no sense, let me (attempt to) explain what I mean. It would be freaking awesome if I could write a script that says give me the current release version of these 10 major software packages (pick any 10) and goes out to somebody's web service out there (someone I trust, obviously) and gets the information.
Does anyone know that somebody? Thanks, RS
