Ancient thread.

Just wanted to pass along that I've got a couple field locations 'soft
testing' autodeploy with a wrapper written on top of it and stuff.  I'll get
the changes I've made packaged up and sent back to Jim soon.  Mostly it's
just an install script and a wrapper shell script around autodeploy's main
.pl file.

So far there's been no flames, but it's not doing anything terribly critical
currently.
