Are you looking for volunteers? I'd be willing to put some time into
helping out. Don't have enough time to be a Jedi Master like you Ray, but
could do some Padewan tasks;)

Subject: RE: Spectra, the Final Frontier
Query - is there any desire, among this community, to continue the
effort of SpectraSource - ie - someone (or group) manages the code base.
They accept contributions from the community, approves and QAs them,
then releases them?
