I'll use my example specifically:

* I'm learning as fast as I can, but things take time. I'd love to write my
own scripts and share them (I'm sure it would be a whole set) but I've a
long way to go. So someone else sharing *anything* is highly beneficial.

* I expect to have to modify everything; of course his solution won't
immediately work for me. But that's part of the game.

* Sending it to many people is not worthwhile. But he could make the list
quite interesting by starting a couple independent threads:

    o Adding a site
    o Adding a user within a site
    o ...and so on

In the process, I'm sure that a lot of comments would even get his script
improved.
