It's been my general observation that this list tends to be rather
"bursty" in nature, perhaps with an influx of "new" people. As I've
said, I'd love to see more interest drummed up on this and development
start to move forward again (*pokes Vikas* *chuckle*).

Hmmm... I hadn't seen that (else would have jumped at the idea), but at
one point I had dropped the tree under my own CVS server -- probably just
better to get Vikas' blessing and hit Sourceforge though, nowadays (not
like that hasn't already been said... HeHe)
