I'll take a look at it as soon as I can.. (it's bedtime for me right now)

You're right, we're still working on that. I wanted to wait for our database
to be up and running though, because I've edited too many static pages in my
lifetime already and therefore refuse to do anything but dynamic sites. ;-)

A few of our requirements are (or rather will be?) :

- open-source model (so other developers can learn from your code)
- willingness to accept contributions / additional developers
- a serious chance your project will make progress and be completed

Nothing is 100% sure yet, as we are still working out things. If you'd like
to, you can subscribe to the LGDC mailinglist. I forgot the right procedure
at the moment but I'm sure it's on the site somewhere.

I'll keep your mail in my mailbox and as soon as I've visited your page and
know more I'll contact you.

Regards, Rob

PS: Paul, can you add a link to this project on the site?
