I had a look at it (the screenshots) and am currently downloading it.
Unfortunately my workstation doesn't have a sound device, so I'll have to take
it home before I can give it a try :-)
Screenshots look very neat. It remembers me of FT2 ! It really seems a
project worth contributing to.
Also, I checked out the FT2 web page, and it says that Magnus (one of the guys
who did that thing) is considering an open-source release of FT2... interesting
too, don't you think.
