I would like to include it in the Makefile as well if it is possible. We
hope to have the data from SvT on the site in just a few days. Once we
have that, the se_swedb grabber will be superior to the old se-grabber.
It is also a lot simpler (no timezones, no character conversions) and it
doesn't rely on the HTML layout of any website, which means that it will
hopefully work better for all users. The old se-grabber has a bad habit
of breaking every now and then since it relies on at least six different
websites for its data.

Since it is a new grabber, it won't affect any existing users unless
they choose to switch. I'm prepared to fix any comments that Ed might
have, either before or after the release.
