Thanks for your offer, and also thanks to everybody else for offering help 
keeping the wiki and the website alive (naming Mauricio and Jonathan-David 
here, I hope I haven't missed somebody). IMHO it's important that all the 
wiki data isn't lost again, like it was the last time. So it would be really 
cool, if you, or anybody, could set up a small webspace area, where we can 
put the wiki.

Concerning the top-level domain: I don't think, we really need this to keep 
the project up and running. It would be enough to have a sub-domain somewhere 
and point there from sourceforge. In fact, I have got ktechlab.sf.net in my 
bookmarks to go to the wiki and the project page. So ktechlab.org is just a 
nice feature, that isn't really needed. What is needed is some space and a 
webmaster, that helps to keep the stuff running.

This sounds good to me, does this mean, you are willing to set up some space 
for the project und put some free time into doing the webmaster job?

bye then
