I think we should at least attempt to consolidate into one place w/ a little
forum + mailing list.  Anybody want to head up the efforts ?

There are 4 components

1) MacFuse Core (Erik Locking code seems to be working in Lion 10.7 also)
2) Objective C frameworks
3) Prefpanes
4) Utilities (installers/auto-updater/build script)

Best,
Bryan
