Yeah - we were going to do the world's most wonderful refactor of Orca
based upon all that we had learned while creating it.  But...well...you
know, the word "refactor" doesn't float so well with management when
other words such as "no budget" are in the air.  So, the orca-devel-list
is somewhat dormant and we use the orca-list and bugzilla for all of our
discussions.

some tips on getting started. Please let me know if you need more
information to get going.

Thanks!
