Nope.

What has happened is that I had to move this month.   We did the move
largely in increments -- carloads at a time.   Overall, it was pretty
much a full time job for several weeks.

I'm starting to be "back" now -- currently I'm catching up with a lot
of accumulated crises and overdue tasks re the arch project.

I should be fully back to Pika in May when I'll merge the pending
changes that people have submitted and work on evaluating where we are
and making the last-push plan to get to our first release of an R5RS
Scheme (which will hopefully occur this summer).

Absolutely there is a place for new developers -- if you can hold on
for just a few more days while work resumes after a few weeks hiatus.
