first of all this is great, we need more stuff like this (even if you
don't make it part of JOS it aids the Java community in general).

I don't have alot of time to invest in this but I'll do anything I can,
I'm sure that goes for all of us.
Keep the list updated of your progress, no matter how busy we get we can
always donate advice to a project.

Using the conferencing feature of your office phone, dial

conference them together. Put your own phone on mute
and listen to see how long they'll make small talk before
figuring out that neither one placed the call.
