Glad to hear the you're busy. GeoFizz then? Doing much work with GrassGIS and your local Archaeolgists?
- I used to be an Archaeologist with the University of Manchester (UK).

I'd be quite happy to set-up a branch for your code on the svn and let
the community work on merging it.

Must admit that there is alot of work to do. Much of the coding is beyond my current knowledge -
hey - I'm a project admin, not a full time coder! I took on this project
because 
a) It's a great project that was worth saving
b) no-one else seemed to be willing to take it on.
c) Just for fun ;)
