You may get some more interest in it over the next little while.  At the
FRBR workshop at OCLC in Dublin OH earlier this week, I mentioned it and
some people were interested.  I said it was a beginning, very early,
implementation of FRBR built right from the spec, by a non-librarian, for
people to catalogue their personal libraries, and I had it running on my
laptop.  That provided a contrast to OCLC, who've been FRBRizing their
enormous WorldCat catalogue by using a twenty-four-node Beowulf cluster of
dual CPU Linux boxes.  I showed it to a couple of people and a couple of
others made a note of the name.
