If you get a chance to discuss it with him, see if it'd be feasible to implement a small engine for forums like us to have a site specific ranking system for our members.

They are going to implement a function that users can submit for verification/validation on hwbot but it will update the proper user forums, based on some sort of API set. I.e. you will submit on the bot but the "bot" will update OCA with screenshots and hardware info. Very cool idea for sure.
I would be really doubtful that RB would license the hwbot code to anyone, unless it was in a smaller restricted/neutered form. Even if he was willing to do so, hes such a busy guy you wouldnt see it till 2011 probably lol.
