Heya, thanks for your feedback...any and all is good...we always
encourage those who want to help and fix things, to jump in! We have an
open door to contributors...if you and/or anyone else are frustrated,
then please, it is up to you and others to help out! That is the open
way...so please let me know how I can best assist you (and anyone else)
to jump in and help us make this site/project great!

I'm open to ppl. paying me to work on it ;) Anyway, that is not the
ultimate goal, but I'm working on hiring a team to handle contracts on
these projects...anyone interested in that too?
