You are right.  Yet at the same time I would like to see one person
that is responsible for maintaining the stable releases.  I already
see it is going to be difficult to maintain multiple versions each
of which require different configurations and different gnome versions. 
Also, there are so many additional libraries that I would like to
see added to the project that I do fear we will be stretched
beyond our capabilities.

I will update the message with your suggestion.  Also, thanks for
reminding me about the sourceforge job posting feature.  I will
post there as well.
