Congrats on the new release!

This sounds like a good idea.  The framework is already there in 
KnoppMyth.  If I wanted to try something else, I'd backup KnoppMyth and 
install XYZ (Note, one should leave /myth untouched).  Once XZY is 
installed, ensure /myth is in fstab and import the backed up database.

Yes, Dennis and I usually chat over Gmail.  Daviey lurks in #knoppmyth, 
so stop by...  We can arrange for a time to chat.
