That's my doing.  I was being lenient because I figured if you use
an unusual character then there's probably a reason.  I just
checked against ExPASy's scanprosite, and they explicitly don't
allow J, O or U (or 1, or ~ or chr(15) :).  So I'll fix my code.

Hmm, that means I need to figure out how to login to CVS for write
access.  And just how to I register with Jitterbug?  I don't
see a place to create a new login.
