Hi Guys,
We need to get a webpage or a webapp up that allows new mirror admin's to request addition to the mirror list and for people to request changed. It just needs to allow some specific bits of into, validate that input, make sure its a person doing the request - and file as an entry at bugs.centos.org.
Anyone fancy taking this work up ? I'd be quite happy to help and provide all the info needed.
Thanks

Joe Price has offered to write something in python with webpy.
otoh, the bugs.centos.org interface is in php ( and has an api that does not need php on the calling side ) and we have lots of other mirror scripts in python and perl.
So, personally, I think python is as good as any other option.
