Terry,

We are all volunteers and understand that things happen when they happen.
Feel free to drop any emails to the list or catch up on IRC.

Let us know what you learn as you go.

The normal use/user of Gossip would be embedding it in something else a
nosql database or a web server, some other piece of software where they
wish to share information or member state.

The stand alone examples are essentially are a way for the end-user(like
you) to interact with the project without me saying "run the unit tests".

I would love to get your markdown into the project and coupling that with a
new module seems liek a good idea to me.

Please read our guide on contributing code.
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GOSSIP/Apache+Gossip+contribute+code

We have already talked about this enough so you can start from the part
"Create a JIRA ticket" and submit a patch with the examples moved out into
a module and your markdown.

I will help usher the process.

Thanks
Edward
