Thanks for this. Please note that now that file is up to date, so I
think it can be now used safely to generate the requests.

What about screen scraping our status page? Alternatively, if you
prefer, I can put on line side by side to it a more machine
interpretable version of it (plain text, record oriented, tab-separated
or something such). What about it?
Once this detail has been settled, I assume we can go ahead and request
the binNMUs, since nobody complained about it ...
Cheers.
