The risk with a post like this is always you will wind up with self-serving
answers :-) In my experience, the best course of action is to find a script
you like or want to use and then to test it. If you're not sure what to test
or how to test, then contact the author. If the author is not readily
"accessible" to answer your questions directly, then it's probably not a
script you want to use - for a number of reasons.
