I'm glad to hear that! Many people say they have a different
experience, but we try to be helpful.

I think many of our software projects have similar issues, and one of
the key aspects is to try to get more than one volunteer to develop
each one.

I'm currently working on improving the documentation for the rails
port (with a view to making it easier for new developers to get
started). When I finish with that, do you think that your OWL project
could benefit from something similar? Or are there other things that
you think are holding back other developers from getting started?

Cheers,
