"Another curious rsync.net customer taking a look."
Thanks for being our customer (at rsync.net).
"How are the codes derived?"
# generate the ohby code
use String::Random;
my $pattern = new String::Random;
my $size = 6;
# don't use i,I,1,l,L,0,O,X,x etc..
$pattern->{'A'} = [ 'A'..'H', 'J', 'K', 'M', 'N', 'P'..'W', 'Y' .. 'Z', '2'..'9' ];
my $code = $pattern->randpattern('A' x $size);
(We disallow ILOX and 0 since that could get confusing)
Right now we are handing out random (free) codes that are 6 characters long, but at some point I suppose we have to increase to 7 ... like ICQ ...
