Great.

Yeah - some sort of balance there would be nice. Maybe there should be some
sort of 'dependency' model built in, where plugins can depend on other
plugins?

Also, authentication is a major issue for me right now. Basically, I'd like
to see argo work over an encrypted connection. Perhaps simply ssl, that
should not be too hard.

And finally - have you played with ruby at all? Doing OO in perl is, well,
somewhat painful... I did see the Programming Ruby book on your Amazon
wishlist.

Thanks,
Ward.
