A fool rushes in...

The automated test suite must surely be a critical path item for a 1.0 
release but perhaps a current release (0.8.2?) is more useful in the 
short term. I have a few days between projects starting next week and I 
am willing to put in the time to create a new release provided a 
seasoned resource (or two) volunteers to deal with the clueless 
questions I am certain to have. I am quite new to the CVS. However, I 
am getting the hang of it insofar as updating webware projects with 
current snapshots and I have read the cederqvist document.

BTW, I will not be offended if this offer flies like a stone chicken. I 
am sure there are others on this list far better qualified than I.
