I'd be willing contribute with the following -
- document 5.0 features for ooRexx Reference
- write any needed test cases
- dive into the test framework (though I haven't yet had any look at it)
(Any detailed hints regarding above are very welcome, e.g. what and how
exactly needs to be installed for DocBook in a Windows environment)
I'd also be willing to participate in any running costs we have, like, if
maybe cost has been the reason why the build machine was shut down
