Thanks Denis!

I believe I can speak on behalf of everybody here, that we feel you've done a 
great job maintaining WML. Good luck with your present and future endeavours!

At the time being, I will set up a Berlios.de project for Web Meta Lang, and 
import the sources into a Subversion repository. I'll be liberal on giving 
accounts, and if you're good enough I'll also make you a project admin.

I'd also like to start publicizing WML on Freshmeat again, to get more people 
to know it.

But naturally, even the core source code requires a lot of work...

Thanks again to Denis and Ralf!
