This little coffee script will watch Wikipedia for edits from a set of named IP ranges and will tweet when it notices one. It was inspired by @parliamentedits and is used to make the @congressedits feed available.
If you are curious the default IP ranges for the US Congress in the config.json.template file came from govtrack. You can learn more about the significance of Congressional edits to Wikipedia here and here.
