yes, i do, but what make you think that it has to happen on your 
"reasonable time frame"? :-)

thanks for worrying about the state of the project, it seems to be 
"Unattended", and please feel free to update the look and feel or 
whatever you could help.

The unattended project is intended to avoid wasting time on same duties

learn how to compile new kernel in Linux :-)

that will be cool isn't it? :-)

There were a couple of emails away someone posted some information about 
how to compile within debian lenny.
Have a look on our wiki as well there is some info (I can give you write 
access if you need it)

Cheers,
