I wish I could do something to help, but unfortunately I can't 
think of much for now.  (C++ coding and learning compiler 
internals exceeds what's possible as things stand).  If things 
should take off on the business front, I'll try to help where I 
can, but that's a matter of a few years in the best case.

Anyway, I very much appreciate the work of you and your 
colleagues on GDC.
