I really do not know brocade from my elbow.  But, importing scripts that I
can not test myself is potential for a lot of support grief for *me* - and
a few generous ML contributors.  I feel far more comfortable when a number
of folks write on the ML that they use script R on V,V1,etc with login
script L and its been reliable for N months - and I'm willing to test the
import or give you remote access to one to do so.

Who vouches for what scripts with what flavors of Brocade?
