A big list of things to do...




Hi All,

On my plane ride home, I took some time to type up a list of things
that need to be done on this project. It may not be the ultimate list, 
but I thought I would share it with the group to get the ball rolling.
If I forgot to put something down, feel free to add to the list, or 
better yet, volunteer to perform some of the items listed.

Regards,

Dan Dove
