You're absolutely welcome to help on Kura - there's a host of things to
do, some of them nice and separate, like some gui features or text parsing
algorithms, or a search feature for the web interface, others of a more
general nature, like getting Unicode support in, or moving to Qt 2.2.1.
If people want to help coding, I'll set up CVS and things like that.
