Warp's response is right on the money here. Nearly-full automation is very
important; I can vouch for that from seeing the IRTC run via the admin
list. Everytime you have to do something manually it adds the potential for
something to go wrong, plus requires someone to be available at the right
time to do it.

I would like to add my thanks to you both for this. I would also like to call
for a big thank you to Steve (St) for setting up the TC-RTC in the interim. I
know that he has spent a great deal of effort and money on this for the
community.
Well done! Everyone.
Regards
Stephen

I wonder if it might be appropriate for the reborn IRTC to start off
with a "TINA CHeP" topic...?

wooHoo! :-D
Interesting choice of seaside and smalltalk. I will have to look into those,
and maybe give them a try on my Ubuntu box.
The use of the Seaside framework is much more in the spirit of PovRay than
the .NET framework too, IMO. Good choice.
I am glad to see the IRTC coming back, cheers all around!

If Seaside is not a Microsoft product, then it is more in the spirit of
POV-Ray than .NET, by virtue of that fact alone.
