Hi Walter, this sounds terrific - five large projects and still time to contribute to our project - man, do you sleep at all? :-)
Do not be afraid to write English text - there are enough native speakers on this list who will be glad to assist with fixing bugs in English text. ;-) So, propose some documents you wanna write and check with Chad who is currently preparing the Anakia pages to be compatible with the Maven environment. It would be great to have an "AndroMDA 3.0 for dummies" article, first. Cheers...
