Of course, the one thing your package does is a bit of auditing, I tend to do this with etckeeper, but yours is far more integrated. Seems quite nice, I'll have to look into it!

I've got a small open source project started that parses BlueCoat logs and generates summaries of user activity using Open Flash Chart. I think it's a great tool and it has helped my project a lot! You can take a look at it at http://www.scripthat.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=281 where there is a live demo link to view it as well. I’m using Open Flash Chart for a few things also.

My site will use asp.net with MS SQL. The aim is to allow users to input chart data into the db and then OFC will display it. I’m about to embark on the same journey.
