It turned ugly again outside (will continue for the next couple of
days) so I'm back in front of the computer again.  Bear getting paid
is what I was recommending earlier as well, so of course I'm there.
While on the subject of money... I think the biggest thing holding
this project back from being done quickly is money.  I would
guestimate that I make less than $3/hr if I counted all the time I
spend on this project.  Like I said in the report it is hard to give
such a low paying prospect a lot of priority over things that are
either more important or higher paying.  The difference is that it's
fun and something I believe in.  Don't really have any suggestions
other than keep eyes open for more funding opportunities.

Also about using the remain funding I think it would be good to get
submit estimated budgets for continuing work and get group approval
for them... like John S. did recently.  As I said earlier, my proposal
is to move the current version on dev to live.  This will involve a
lot of cosmetic changes, minor bug fixes as they occur, some end user
documentation and copyleft agreements, etc...  My billable time will
be less than 20 hours.  After this I or someone would announce *open
for business* on the permaculture list.  Ok with folks?  I hope so,
cause I already started;-)

Cheers,
Chad
