In future releases, I may implement enumerating new authors.

Scripted using Powershell and the .NET communication library from www.smilla.ru.

NOTE 1: Created without any consideration given to how timezones might be handled. My local timezone is AST.
NOTE 2: I also just grab the latest 500 articles and sort through those, because anything higher may cause timeouts. Hopefully, that is enough.
NOTE 3: If you would prefer not to see your results posted here, please reply to this posting.
NOTE 4: I've done my best to try to strip email addresses from the results.

well done marco :-)

Based on at least one of the entries, I must have a problem with my script
logic...

I'll double-check my stuff in the next couple of weeks...
