I don't know of anyone working on this.

TMDA is written in Python, which wouldn't be a bad language to learn in 
- it's quite fun:-)

I'm afraid the TMDA works well enough for me that I'm not highly

most mailing list messages, but that's about it. Lots of other things 
demand programing time! Sorry.
