Yes, I'm more than happy to help with this. Nicholas, we are coming down
to the wire on this and I'm pretty busy all next week prior to heading
to montreal...release early, release often and let a brother help ya
out :)

Yes, this is a good solid task for someone to take on. We can hook

Yes, this is another one that would be brilliant for someone to take on.
Andy Fitzsimon is doing this for Open Clip Art Library, and it would be

and planning on this project with Dave, Alex and others...cheers!
