Yes, but in fact the project had already languished for a year,
and both Leonardo and Matt admitted being too busy to work on it.
New babies, dot com hours, and real life in general can be very
distracting. It seemed to me that an opportunity had appeared
and was just as quickly disappearing. I've seen it happen before.
That's why I tried to move it along with a bit of urgency.
Sorry if I annoyed anyone.

Last I remember, Leonardo thought he might have the source but
was waiting for permission to distribute it. (For the record, I
like the direction he was going with the source before the real
world took precedence.)

Meanwhile Matt had already basically given permission, but perhaps
not formally enough?

At this point I'd say it's still up to the guys with no free time
to find the source and put it somewhere.

I don't see the point setting up a sourceforge project without the
source. Seems kinda silly to me.
