Nigel,

Thanks for providing an excellent FAQ for folks wanting to use Swarm
with SuSE Linux!

So this is an excellent opportunity for my next question: any SuSE
users out there, feel like making some SuSE-specific RPMs?  If
anyone's seriously interested, I'm more than happy to help get them
kickstarted with the `rpm' packaging methods (spec file maintanance,
naming conventions and the like).  I just don't have access to a
SuSE-based machine (we already maintain a RH 6.0, RH 6.1 and a Debian
GNU/Linux machines).  Of course, we are more than happy to host the
RPM files once they're built.

Anyone feel like jumping in, just let me know via private e-mail.

Thanks again!
