BTW, when you say it can do network stuff, what do you mean exactly?
I've been thinking about writing something in python to parse a pdf's doi (for scientific articles) and automagically download the corresponding reference in bibtex format in order to have a well organized paper database and also to create the manifest file accordingly (title, author, journal & year). Do you think it is possible with this release of lua?

Thanks again.
