Because Jeremy artfully suckered me into this on the call this week ;-), I
just committed some OPD fixes and enhancements.  Three major things:

- There's a new "--master" command line switch to specify an alternate URI
to get the master repository listing.  Hence, anyone can host their own
master repository listing.  (This used to be the misleading "--repository"
command line switch).  Hence, you can do:

  opd --master http://your.server.com/path/to/master/repos/listing/

- Re-defined the "--repository" command line switch to really mean "go to
this repository" (as opposed to "use this master repository listing").
Hence, you can do:

  opd --repository http://your.server.com/path/to/repository/

Note that the URI does *NOT* need to be listed in the master repository
listing.  Hence, *anyone* can now host an OPD repository, regardless of
whether they are in our master listing or not.

- Added a bunch of enhancements to make OPD scriptable so that
higher-level applications can invoke OPD and get sensible
(non-interactive) output.  There's a lengthy CVS commit log message about
it; go read that for all the juicy details ("cvs log oscar/scripts/opd"
will show you the goods).

Contriah!
