I'd rather pull this information from the database or even ajax load
it from a static URL. Coordinating the .txt files over all the
different appserver trees is a pain we should avoid when possible.
Er, which database? Wouldn't that make the whole "read-only" thing a
little more problematic (i.e. how do you switch out of read-only when
you're checking a DB that's not writable)?
