Hi,

i'm really looking forward to the new "*RTC" (whatever it's 
going to be called - as long as it's not "the competition 
formerly known as IRTC" ;)

Now this may be a bit much to ask for, but just as a thought 
- if you're going to automate the whole site anyway, could 
this new page accommodate the animations, too...?

-Markus
