I'm currently working on some contract here (I'm being tired of eating peanut 
butter for the last three or four weeks ... ;-P)
So if you could all send me your suggestion or projects you want to see in

On the language support front : I have ReXX/OReXX and Clipper support in 
somewhat working order.
