Possible additional tools for Whimsy

[sebb <se...@gmail.com>]

Mirror checker
-------------------
It would be useful to have an online version of the mirror checking script [1]
This would allow mirror providers to check their mirror before submitting it.
As well as being useful for the apmirror maintainers.
It could start out as a tool for ASF committers only.

Moderator utilities
------------------------
I think moderators would find it useful to have scripts to
(un)subscribe users and update the deny list.
Also it would be really good to have a replacement for the
query@pulse.apache.org service.

Are these the sort of tools that would be suitable candidates for Whimsy?

If either or both of these are things you wish to work on: go for it!
