    GreaterGood.com., by the way. But it was two or three years ago. I'm
    loath to mention it, because I wasn't the prime mover, and I don't want
    to take more credit than I deserve. I was only contracting there for
    three months.
    OmniGroup and Ubermind did much of the work.

    Hi Christian,

    In case the app is open to the public, then I'd really like to see it,
    because I have a hard time to believe that you get good
    turnaround-times with graphics-heavy things and WO...imagine the hassle
    explaining GFX guy to use CVS. Most of them aren't even used to naming
    files with proper extensions...

    Cheers, Anjo
