Open-Sourcing my Update Server scripts

I posted the code for the update server I use to update the teleport pads on Nowhere on the Second Life Wiki. I use AubreTec Teleport Pads for teleporting between locations in the sim, and I've been quite happy with them. The problem is that the pads are configured with two notecards, one of which contains the locations and the other than contains authorized users. Whenever I add a friend to the list of authorized users or add a new teleport pad, I need to visit each pad and copy new notecards in, which gets pretty tedious. Since necessity is the mother of invention, I wrote up an update server which distributes these new notecards automatically. I later started using this system for updating Freeview screens and anything else that gets configured this way. You can find the code on the Second Life Wiki at the following link:

Hope you find it useful!
