the description seems fine to me, I've approved the component with
only minor changes to it.
I've added your user to the wxCode project and you can now start to
edit/upload contents for your component following the guide at
http://wxcode.sourceforge.net/maintguide.php  (let me know if you have
troubles).

well, I wouldn't write this in the component description but I think
it would be important to write this in the component's Readme.txt...

interesting!

Anyhow don't hesitate to ask questions/doubts on the wxcode-users
mailing list if you need!
