I would recommend you to do just that, then work on _all_ the items you presented, find people who are willing to invest countless hours of unpaid development time to make something out of your ideas. After a few years, resurface with the brilliant thing as a true champion who was right all along. It’s simple as ABC! If however, you are like me with no patches or code to contribute, sit silent and watch the haiku caravan go. The project has many good moments and exciting developments, it’s also fun to be an observer, i have enjoyed this ride from the very beginning, it’s been great! =) Cheers, Sami Hoodownr
