Anyone care to tell me how it gets updated?

I've got a piece of ruby code that uses the icalendar module to parse our ical feed looking for meetings (the next 3) and then uses WWW::Mechanize to log into mailman as admin and change that field. It runs nightly on cron.

It's ~ 50 lines of code, I could post it somewhere with the password stripped if you wanted to see it.

There is no silver bullet.  Plus, werewolves make better neighbors
than zombies, and they tend to keep the vampire population down.
