Hi,

Would it be possible to set the name of the user when submitting
logs to the discuss meetings instead of having the user be
root@ATHENA.MIT.EDU? This would make it easier to do QA because
one could just reply to the transaction (in, say nndsc).

To do this, it looks like all you have to do is change lumberjack
to pass the username into send_to_discuss and add "-s", username
to the argument list for dspipe.

Good idea, bad idea?
