Daniel, thanks a lot for the encouragement!

I hadn't known about metalink4r, even tho there was never a release
it's at least interesting to know that someone thought about doing it
:)

If this seems like something that you'd be interesting in working on
later, please let me know. Or if you're just interested in metalinks,
we have a pretty low traffic discussion list at
http://groups.google.com/group/metalink-discussion , feel free to join
us.
