It would obviously be good to have more people involved in the

not been available in a public repository. That is about to change;
I am working on setting up a Subversion repository for the Hobbit code
on SourceForge. I am currently testing a dump/import of the RCS modules
into Subversion, and if that looks to be OK I'll upload it to Sourceforge
tomorrow. So by Monday, this should be available to anyone who wants to
hack Hobbit. Documentation on how you use SVN (Subversion) on Sourceforge
is available at SF(3).


One thing that has made me very happy is that the support available on
the mailing list apparently works quite well even when I am not around.
It is a great relief for me to see how helpful this community is; you
really are an important part of this project.
In order to aid contribution while not compromising support, would it be 
worthwhile to have a development mailing list?

(I have some questions to ask etc., but I would prefer not to ask them on the 
normal list).
