Good that the project goes futher and that it is automated now.

What programs are used by to analyze positions?
How are rows to process selected?
I analyze myself 100-200k rows and would like to participate also .. any ways to
join?
Is (some) of the data also public downloadable on Dann Corbit's ftp site?
Can the CAP-client go through a proxy-server (via http port 80 for example)?
