I've wanted to do this at FireGirl for a long time, actually, but haven't
had the time to devote to it. I have a server with mSQL and PHP. If someone
would like to create a small database and interface, I'd be happy to donate
the server space.
Using this method, we wouldn't have to use a map, although we could do that
too. Not a big deal. We could enter any country, any city, etc.
Any Unix people out there?
