+1 we're all one community here: please don't feel constrained to work in just one little box. if you want to work on one of the components here you haven't worked on before, just post a hello (as phil did) and then dive in. the worst that can happen is a -1 :) remember to add yourself to the list of committers for that component. if you're embarking on a major rewrite (rather than just bug fixes), consider either starting work on a branch or taking a tag. - robert
