That's me :-) I am certainly willing to work on Digester2. However I would personally like to see one more release cycle of the current Digester. In particular, all the "plugins" stuff is new, and I would like the chance to get this out into a production release and get feedback from users on the API so that if there are any deficiencies I get a chance to fix them in 2.0. There are a number of other new features, too, that it would be good to get feedback on before 2.0. I am leaving my job in early December this year in order to spend a year doing a mix of study, research, open-source work and short-term contracting. It's also a chance to get away from dealing with %$#%$ customers (politics, estimates, deadlines, etc) for a bit. This would be a good time for me to get stuck into Digester2, particularly as Digester1.6 would have been out around 4 months, hopefully sufficient time to get some feedback on the new features. I'm hoping that this will suit other people interested in Digester..fellow developers, reviewers and interested parties.
