Thanks, Scott, for that. I've already experimented a little from doing ftp 
calls from straight from shell - using PL/sh - of course, this is 
sub-optimal(!), but was good for an experiment. 


Having trouble so far getting PL/php built on v9, too... 


OK, we'll keep at it!

Easiest way would be to install a pl/language that has something like 
curl available to it. Then it's just simple file access from the 
language perspective.
