The gatekeeper is a person. One hopes that his actions are logical, but they're not all programmatic. There are some checks that get run automatically, and we're looking to clean up and perhaps expand those to make use of the capabilities of whatever DSCM sysytem we end up with. > Since stuff with semi-sentient-intelligent systems (in this case, > sanity checks / test suites on the putback code) falls right into my > domain, the code gates picqued my interest. That's all. I'm sure Danek will take some offense to the "semi-sentient-intelligent" label. :-) -- Keith M Wesolowski "Sir, we're surrounded!"
