Today while I was updating my Firefox extensions, it occurred to me that this would be some really nice functionality to have in a CMS.  What if every time an admin logged in or ran a "Check For Updates" module, he'd get a list of his active modules with lower version numbers that what's currently available in CVS?  Maybe the list has a link to each module's project page for immediate review and download.
<br><br>The module itself sounds like it would be relatively simple:&nbsp; parse the version number out of each of the module files and compare them against a master list of current versions.&nbsp; The trick would be that master list.&nbsp; I'm imagining something like an XML file hosted on 
<a href="http://cvs.drupal.org">cvs.drupal.org</a> that generates on call (or maybe once a day).<br><br>Does this sound interesting to anyone but me?&nbsp; Is there any way we could extract latest version numbers from CVS?<br clear="all">
