I was one, and I am pushing 30 boxes out there now.  And if you think users 
is bad, I just had version control bite me in the backside!  Anyway, after 
looking a long time, there is nothing at all out there.  I was thinking of 
building some scripting stuff using the "make something not totally unlike a 
shell" in m0n0wall, and bash for windows.  That is as far as I have gone. 
:-)  Time to get a small subgroup of interested people together and work on 
this?
