Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

["Michael R. Gettes" <>]

Peter,

thank you so much for the reply about Brown's code.  What you describe is 
exactly what I am looking to do.  What would it take to have the code 
available?  If you just removed all the passwords i'd be happy to take it in 
a completely unsupported state to save development time.  I'll buy beers, a 
dinner, or ????

PLEASE????  Think of it as the old BITNET collaboration days when we all 
worked to change the world :-)
