Hi Mauro,
I find you project very interesting, and I seem to remember I voted a +1
some time ago. I have no time currently to help you with it, but I would
hate loosing that nice project. I would say, put it in the sandbox and work
from there. Do not feel offended if no one answer to your message. It does
not mean there is not interest, it simply means people are very busy at the
current time. Keep asking until you get an answer ! ... :)
Thanks for your participation.
Vincent.
