RE: ObjectWeb Portal

Glad to hear people like this direction...I agree that it could definitely
be beneficial. I am wondering if anyone has the inclination to become the
"object web expert," in terms of figuring out how to get things set up
there, migrate over, etc. Denny, you still lurking out there? I know you
were managing the Barracuda portal on SourceForge for a while, and the OW
interface is quite similar...is this something you'd like to do?

If nobody steps forward, I can take it on, but my time is limited right now,
so we might be able to move things along faster if somebody wants to take
this task on...
