Yuck. While I won't prevent someone from doing this, regularly scraping

Yes, we keep trying that. It keeps failing. :)


Oh for God's sake we can agree on a one line CSV format LOL. 

I'll write the scraper / parser, anything that doesn't parse doesn't go in the HTML. 

As per my suggestion, the following fields should be included:

- System name
- Type
- Services offered
- Guest account?
- Registrable accounts?
- Telnet link

Example:

.BEGIN-PUBLIC-SERVICES
CHIMPY|AlphaServer DS10|VMS accounts, launch pad to other systems|No|Yes|telnet://chimpy.sampsa.com
.END-PUBLIC-SERVICES
