> Write a script that pulls version X and saves it as a unique filename (vX.txt).  Do the same for version Y (vY.txt).  Then, do a diff of versions X and Y with the output going to diffXY.txt.  Grep that output for the code relevant to a zone change or other configuration change you are looking for.  Lastly, the script could send an email, with the file diffXY.txt attached, to a designated email address.  You could even script this to run just after rancid finishes a poll, but that would take more scripting.
