Thanks for the quick update. I'll just offer out there both design and
programming assistance to whoever needs it on which ever project. I'm a
competent PHP coder (been using it since 2.0) and do a bit of design
work. I don't want to stick my nose where it isn't welcome, so if
anyone has anything they want to hand off or collaborate on, let me know.
