Hi Victor,

This is great and sounds very useful. I love to see extras (read hacks)
 for DHIS2. I would suggest we maybe start some sort of repository on
launch pad for this type of stuff. There is increasingly a lot of these
types of "utilities" which are ending up in the trunk code, but there is
probably a better place for them in a branch of their own.  Not exactly
sure where this might should be, but I think we should find a place for
this type of stuff, as well as the increasing number of scripts which are
popping up as well.

Regards,
Jason
