Hi,

I'm a student at the university of antwerp and we're doing a project where we combine hardware-profiles with some bugzilla's.

For now we only have two hardware-profiles (mine and my friends), but we need some more...

So that's why i would like to ask to mail me your hardware-profiles.
I've written a script which parses the output of the 'lshw -xml' command. This should be ran as root so 'sudo lshw -xml'.

I would like you to send me te output of this to Tony.Vanbeers@student.ua.ac.be

Thanx in advance.

P.s. : What I don't know is if anyone could have a reason for not doing this (on a security level). Maybe that output contains things that some people rather would keep for themselves. If that's the case, then please reply to this message, for we have to make a website and there we would like users to be able to add their own profile by the output of 'lshw -xml'. And that would be unusable if this a security risk...

Thanx again..
