That sounds like the right sort of idea. I am going to spend some time
today revising Dan Mueth's "Getting Involved In GNOME" document (that
was already on my list before I started this thread). Making that
document more appropriate to the Century Of The Fruitbat will be a
start. I shall post a link here when I put it up somewhere.

The next trick is to a quick run-around and pull together some things
that exist right now. If I have time to do that today, I'll post
something.
