Default RIO release 1

It has, in my experience, become harder and harder to find the good stuff among the growing amount of releases. This script lets users on your site recommend stuff they think is worth checking out.

How it Works
==========
A user on your site downloads a smart tool and wants other people to know about it. All the user has to do is go to the parent dir of the release and do 'SITE RECOMMEND <dirname>'. Depending on your configuration a symlink is created looking something like '/RECOMMENDED/<user>/<section>/<release>', where <user> and <section> are optional and <release> is configurable. It is also possible to get bot announces using dZSBot.

Well, umm, I guess that's basically it. This script is available to all foundation licensees.
