Two things:

david_freeman@alug.org.uk so please update your address books
- At the moment my web page is generated through make and a lot of abuse
of GCC's C preprocessor using #define and some other weird and wonderful features for which it was never designed. However this is not the best way of doing it, can anyone recommend a better dynamic method of generating web pages for upload, PHP has appeal but looks very OTT to me. Anyone suggesting M4 will be forced to buy me a drink and then be shot!
Thanks

M4 is evil to my mind also, I remember the faces at the end of a manlug talk on sendmail's config when I asked would people use M4 for their projects.
Anyway whats your web address wo we can all have a look.
My session management system has been delayed by me playing with kylix, but it is simple. PHP is nice and fast to develop I here but I have also heard very good things about perls template model for web page generation but perl's not my cup of tea. I would be playing with AXkit if it was. (perls templates are not the same as c++ templates).
Maybe you could give us a list of features you wish to support
