yes.

How does the date thing work?  Is it sufficient to:
 convert werewolf8_color.svg werewolf8_color.png
and post the png file somewhere accessible, once a day and it
automatically counts down?  if so that should be easy to get running.

(I note that convert in Fedora 6 will segfault doing so, but rawhide works.)
