PJ, Several of us working on the mdedetrich github projects [1] are preparing to submit a proposal to the incubator, hopefully by the end of the week. We have had contact from several individual devlopers, organizations, projects, and companies about such a project. We identified a champion and several mentors, we would be happy to add you to our list of mentors.
