i put this out there once (couple years ago) but I could offer housing/residency/lodging or whatever you want to call it for someone wanting to dedicate the time and spend a couple weeks in the beautiful finger lake of upstate ny (my sales pitch) this winter....
thats the resource i can donate.... will prob need $$ for food and stuffs. if someone (cyrille?) wants to organize the list of what needs done and someone wants a quiet place to work let me know! cheers m .
