Re: Thoughts on Project Structure



I'm Steve Horne of the sourceforge site.
  Apparently "reply" to these messages isn't going
to the list -- sorry.

I set up the sourceforge site way back when and haven't been able to
support it appropriately due to time pressures. I'll be very glad -- 
estatic -- to see it used.  I'll happily turn it over to whoever wants
to maintain it.  Please feel free to contact me at 
steve@horne.ne.mediaone.net, or through the list.
