Master B,
I could rustle up a hootoo code parser that turns the code block back into the definitions - as has been done with the geek code block.
Do you feel that there is a need for this? I don't mind putting the time in.
Liam.

If you don't mind sparing the time - sure.
There has been talk of it already, but my Java's not good enough to do it myself.
I was planning to launch V1.1 of the code next week, but we could launch the parser simultaneously (with trumpets, banners, and whatever else 
).

Sorry, perhaps I should've mentioned that, for your reference, V1.1 is on A863516. Of course, this is the version that it would be best to base the parser on.

A deadline _and_ backwards compatibilty to contend with?! Ok I'll give it a go.

You're a gent.
I wouldn't worry to much about the backwards compatibility. I'm going to declare previous code versions obsolete on the introduction of each successive one (there won't be _that_ many), a la Bill Gates.

No problem.
Likely to be within the week, or shall I go ahead and launch v1.1 without you?

I'll get back to you by the end of today with a better idea but it's looking like you'll have to go on without me.

Not a problem. I don't want to rush you, anyway.
What I'll do is encourage people to subscribe to the page so we can launch the parser nice and easily.
