I never had any intention of displaying the email addresses, even in a
munged form.  Not sure how IP address can be abused by being posted on a
web site (as apposed to just looked up in the DNS database) - but I've
removed them from the table now.

I was thinking about displaying the browser used to "name and shame"
those using non-Linux based browsers  ;-D 

Is the text displayed on sign-up form and sent out in the e-mail clear?
The two people (Gavin & Alex) that haven't confirmed is that because you
haven't bothered to click the link in the e-mail or because you didn't
get it.

I've added a script to clear away the over 24hr registered list each
night.  What more (if anything) is required?

Is the daily reminder e-mail sent out to the list worth doing again?
Not sure how useful it is.

Steve
