Hi Doug, I was thinking along the same lines. I haven't found any useful info on the MDN API yet, but since I'll be at the moz office wednesday and thursday I expect that to sort itself out. (And I might get lucky when searching for Kuma API instead of MDN API ;) ) I'm off to the airport now, I'll also be on IRC when at Mozilla, so don't hesitate to contact me if needed.
