i've decided that instead of complaining about slowed development
process, i can do some bug-fixing instead.

What would you like me to do?

I can promise 8-12 hours of work, in blocks 2-4 hours long, during the
next few days - maybe more, if i get hooked ;)
What i'd like to ask in return is that someone will be working
together with me, and that we'll have real-time chat to answer each
other's questions.  I'm _not_ going to do regression fixing alone,
because i consider this a waste of time due to my insufficient
programming skills.

cheers,
Janek
