Hi All:

I've seen some good activity on the WIKI (thanks!).  I also need your 
help with identifying the top 5 to 10 things that need doing on this 
list.  Please be brave and speak up, especially those of you who have 
expressed concerns about where the community might be focusing or 
spending its energy.  This really is your chance to help influence where 
things go.

Thanks!

Will
