only seen this post now
everyone would have to have thier .plan files date readable then you have a script which keeps a list of all .plan files to check and regularly checks to see if they're updated or not and acts accordingly.
perl would do the trick and IOL should allow the execution of cgi scripts if they're running any sort of decent operation
