where will this "ok" be printed?

not even the slightest idea how to make this module perform a "bootstrap" ....

can that be documented somewhere please?

I think I failed to configure this issue queue to email me new posts, so first off let me apologize for the delay.

I updated the main project page with a little better description.

Because this uses Drupal's hook system, Drupal is inherently already bootstrapped by the time this module prints "OK" (i.e. there's nothing you need to do besides just enable this module). The module does this at the drupal path "siteping," meaning that you would query YOURSITE.COM/siteping and test the return for the string "OK" (and nothing else).

You would of course be doing this with external monitoring software like monit or a custom bash script or something.

Committed a README.txt file to CVS as well (minor, so haven't re-rolled a whole release for it).
