Just about any CGI-based solution will involve modifying the built-in
security of TMDA.  You might consider a non-web based solution, such
as an e-mail-based system, that does not require changes to the TMDA
security model. 

I've made a very preliminary start on such a system here:

The advantages over CGI-based solutions are (1) reduced complexity and
(2) no security model changes.  Jason and Tim have (I assume) taken
great pains to ensure TMDA remains as secure as possible. Where I've
implemented TMDA, I've chosen to defer to their knowledge in this area
and not attempt to make changes to their security measures.
