Yes, SVN please. I can sort it if need be, I have a number of projects on SF already.

My first thought is that I'd like to keep the package as a whole. Options 
are nice things to have. Also, there may be dependency issues between components
e.g. the dropMonth control requires the mm calendar (mmMonthCtrl) or differences in
features between the wx version and mmwx's.
I'm not aware of a drop-down control like this in wx. A quick search failed to find one.
Which one did you have in mind?
It's not only controls, either. There are the DB and MAPI classes, as well.
I'm happy to take suggestions on these factors, though, nothing's set in stone.

I almost have the controls ready for use. I haven't looked at the DB and MAPI code,
yet. I'd like to put the controls up for comment when they're finished, whilst I work
on the others.

Thanks.
