Yes.  I'm definately interested in a customer interface.  I hope that work
you've already done on fs_selfadmin can be used as a basis.

The old signup server protocol has been rewritten, using the Storable
module.  I'm happy with the results - a similar rewrite for fs_selfadmin
seems reasonable.

Now that the protocol has been rewritten and is extensible, it also might
be desirable to consolidate the different "servers" (fs_signup_server,
fs_passwd_server, fs_mailadmin_server) and "client-side daemons" 
(fs_signupd / fs_passwdd / fs_mailadmind) into one version for all
functions (fs_client_server and fs_clientd or something like that).
