Eric,
I am still here..  Unforunately, current world events have made my
job a bit more hectic.  When things start to die down a bit more
I should start having more free time to devote to other areas.
I am still here though, lurking the the shadows (for the time
being).  I have small amounts of time spreadout thru the week,
so let me know if there is anything that I can help get done.

The CORE concept was proposed to help people identify who was 
the main project leads.  There is nothing that says it can't be
opened up to more people.  This kinda was a fancy way of saying
to the world:  Hey, you intereted?  If so, there are the people 
to talk to.

Hmmm. I don't remember if I had been given an account.  I still very much
want to support the projects.  Is it possible for me to recieve such an
account?
