        Not production-ready at this point. I'm bolting on some more 
pieces, but I have to rebuild the main project website first, that 
takes priority at this point. I'm redoing it from the ground up with a 
lot less code, a lot more templating, and a lot more functionality. 
I've learned from my mistakes in the last couple of years, and I'm 
going to apply that knowledge to the site and the spider.

        I'm also going to be devoting some regular time to fixing and 
releasing that spider (yes, FINALLY, after how many years?) in the 
coming months. There are little pieces of it everywhere in the mailing 
lists, cvs, and other bits, but I'm going to put the whole thing out 
there for use and review, hopefully the first half of this year.

        But the Python spider, the "reference API" for Plucker, needs 
some TLC, because its starting to stagnate behind what the viewer is 
capable of rendering, as Mike mentioned a few days ago.

        Bill? Jim? Are you out there? Any time to work on those bits?
