CCing NDT-dev so they are aware.  I believe as long as you choose a 
version number that reflects this is not the mainline (e.g. something 
that notes its from an mlab specific branch) you can release the 
server/applet on your own time.  Jeff can comment if he would prefer to 
see this done in another way.
