Hi, I am interested in contributing to the Debian-Lex pure blend. I have cheked 
the mailing list and wiki pages, and noticed that the blend has been quite 
inactive for a long time, what's the project status? Is there any active team 
involved in it? If so, which are the most pressing issues that need to be 
sorted out? I am available and willing to get hands on, any recommendation on 
where to start will be welcome. At this point let me introduce myself, I am 
current working as developer for a web application at CodeX (Stanford 
Department of Legal Information) devoted to arbitration and international law, 
and have been a contractor for the Stanford School of Law for quite a long 
time, developing social and semantic networks applied to law research (building 
up a knowledge base, natural language processing tools, inter alia). I am also 
working on an open source machine translation engine English-Chinese 
specialized in the legal domain based in Moses, in collaboration with the 
Stanford China Guiding Cases Project. I am user of Kali, a Debian penetration 
testing fork by Offensive Security, but see the importance that it would have 
for the sector -in academia, commerical practice and public sector- to build up 
a strong, free legal distribution. I just registered to Alioth, I am new to the 
Debian community, please let me know how to proceed further.


Best regards,
Enric G. Torrents
