[IAEP] versus, not

[Kathy Pusztavari]

I understood Walter but added that part myself ;)  For myself, and myself
only, I personally don't want to ask for stuff or even request to be heard
if I don't put the work in - get my hands dirty, etc.

coding. Many more things need "doing". Not to discourage you from
programming, of course, but other skills and contributions are more than
welcome, too. Its An Education Project, right? :)
