    I should probably report that I checked out awhile ago and have been
    doing next to no plone work (not much free time to devote to code
    outside of work, and not doing plone at work currently).  As one of my
    pet peeves when I was doing plone work was folks who abandoned their
    children, so I'd like to help orchestrate a more graceful passing of
    the torch for wicked than just letting it drift into abject neglect. I
    don't to dump this on rob miller lap by default, or create any sort of
    linger expectation about my role.
    
    the point of this is if anyone is interested, I would be glad to help
    them get up to speed stewarding this project (and perhaps setting up
    proper support for it). we could also come up with a roadmap for know
    issues, improvements etc.
    
    wicked is a mixed bag: with newer technology, there are much more
    graceful ways to do wicked that would require much less code.   the
    current design has some fairly limiting flaws and alot of room to
    improve.   it exhibits the hallmarks of many early fivish apps where
    components  are used like a hammer and everything is a nail that can
    be abstracted. There is some good stuff in there too (I think the
    fieldevent pattern is pretty powerful) that sadly I haven't had the
    time to really properly document or make howto's to demonstrate usage.
    
    so if you are interested, just let me know(with a direct reply).
