Every 5 minutes?  Are you crazy???  Please stop doing this now!
You are just putting a lot of load on our server, thus hampering
regular work.

And it makjes zero sense, as the data on the public server get updated
only every 6 hours.

We discussed this in the past, and decided not to, as it does not fit
at all into our mainly e-mail based work flow.


So please STOP sabotaging our server!

Best regards,

You said you  didn't  want  to  use  CGI.pm,  but  methinks  you  are
needlessly reinventing the wheel, one spoke at a time. Either you are
masochistic,  or  you  just haven't seen enough of what CGI.pm can do
for you. -- Randal L. Schwartz in <8cyb81rg81.fsf at gadget.cscaper.com>
