Well, since you asked... :)

I'd like to suggest that we use the name of the account uploading the
file instead of nobody at fedoraproject.org and tweak the format of the
message just a little, to make it easier to compare the output to
locally generated md5sum output.  An example:

A file has been added to the lookaside cache for sportrop-fonts:

26489f9e92601f0f84cfbb278c2b98e1  sportrop-fonts-1.0.tar.gz

Being lazy, I try to be the last one to volunteer anyone else for
work, so I have also made these suggestions in convenient unified diff
format (easily applied using git am to the infrastructure puppet
repository) at: http://tmz.fedorapeople.org/patches/upload_cgi/

Thanks for adding this feature to the upload scripts.  I think it's a
good idea.  Next up, moving from MD5 to something stronger, like
SHA256. ;)
