hi all!
I spend some time, thinking about the crash reports,
and made a report/form I would like to propose for all
uptime/crash reports ...
If the list is able to agree on such a report, I am
willing to setup a tracking database and make some
statistics ...
please feel free to modify/extend this report ...
suggested way of proceeding (imho):
 - extend/modify/argue ...
 - agree on _ONE_ report format
 - implement report pages 
 - submit reports via www
 - make statistics
 - draw conclusions ;) 
best,
Herbert
