QM:

I'm not sure the frequency matters a lot, just show the last XX events of interest. If the database already has a user/level/date table (I have no idea), then it's a trivial fetch, and you don't have to worry about expiration time or anything.

Bikeshedding alert: This is what I'd do if it wuz me. However, it ain't.

I'd build a table (as already mentioned), and have the "graduation list" nodelet have two settings: the number of items to display, and a flag whether you want to see the "interesting" events (ones where monk functionality may change) or just all recent ones.

Finally, I think it would be interesting if being added to a group (such as pmdev, docsiteclan(?sp?) or such) would be interesting as well.

When your only tool is a hammer, all problems look like your thumb.
