That is all I really needed to hear was that MG is still alive, I totally understand the busy life thing. Mine goes from being occupied to busy to chaotic, I totally get it. I am going to get the latest version of MG setup and running and play around with some of the new features of it since I have not really used it much i the last 3-4 years. Hopefully then I can contribute in some way, I figure helping out with documentation and / or examples would be a good place to start.
