 I have all the time needed but not the expertise anymore. The only thing
 that I can contribute is time and labour, there would have to be a
 dedicated list for this too, easy nuff I guess.

dedicated lists (yes plural), CVS repository, and various other 'needs' can be 
up and running in minutes. Since I'm currently unemployed, I got nothing else 
taking up my time...

 Doug, mate!

 Do you not remember one angry old fart a couple of years ago that was not
 going to let go of Caldera. He tried updating for a while till he became a
 real nuciance on a certain list. It became too involved and masochistic
 even though I do have leanings that way. Not only that my memory retention
 spans 90 seconds.

I remember. I also remember personally maintaining my eD 2.4 and submitting 
the notes to you, Kurt, Marcus and others..

Learned a hell of a lot trying to figure out how Caldera had to do things 
'their' way for this package, and 'that' way for this other package...

Umm, yes there were quite a few of us involved at the time. That is the 
frustrating tart for me in that in a short time my memory has got so faulty. 
If I do not do thing repetitiously or within a short space of time the 
knowledge is lost. I also do not have a copy of Caldera anymore.

If I had just a little more cold hard cash laid away, I would say my
gain.  I enjoyed my work, but I never realized the almost invisible
stress that I was subjected to.  I'm sleeping better, wide awake and

   I am in school  finally in last year, 5 classes left, I would like to join in
an adventure like this. I still like the old Calder 2.4 system  some of the
3.1.1 too. I am an experinced developer, but never on a system lke this. There
are some thing I would like to see too. It will take many of us and some one of
Kurt, DEP, Bruce types to guide the project I would assume.
