[development] Module Idea/Suggestion

[Greg Dunlap]

Deploy module would love your help! I have the week off next week and I plan to spend as much of it as needed getting to the goal of a beta-quality release (I have a version that is very close, but a lot of it hasn't been checked in.) At that point I will be looking for a lot of testing so please do get in touch.

Hey Ken,

This is exactly what I was brain storming only more sophisticated.  I
will definitely look into helping out with this module in any way
possible.  Thanks for the link.
