I may be able to contribute to the DV module, but this depends upon whether a client project firms up (has to pay the bills). I will keep you posted.

But again, I appreciate if all interested parties could actually help us with DV maintenance. You probably know much more about DV than myself or any of the current committers anyways :-) As the history shows (DV, JStaple and Rowan projects), there is lots of interest in Swing-related technologies in our community, but not nearly as much commitment. I suspect it is because Swing is not paying anyone's bills consistently (e.g. I may have a 2-month Swing project and then switch back to webapps, I believe that's the case with others too). It would be cool if we could find one or more dedicated developers with a vision in this area to lead the Swing effort. But I'll keep dreaming... > The SOBF tool (Security Officers Best Friend, Open Source tool for > assessing information security risk) I like your website :-) Andrus
