Hi Hayden

Some nice work there. I've been wanting to put a Wiki up myself at  
wiki.mythtv.co.nz for some time, but it never quite happens.

I'd watch what you are doing with the TV channel logs. They are  
copyrighted and you need to make sure you have permission before  
hosting them on sites other than freeviewnz.tv.
