That's fine by me.  I don't even have anything that compiles yet, so I'm
not really ready to unleash my broken code to the masses.  Once it
actually does something useful I'll probably stick it in Xfce svn.  If
Pasi (or anyone) would like to work on it as well, that would be great. 
I have several projects going (plus that weird real life thing), and I
don't have time to do everything.  Obviously, based on my previous
comments, I'm not really interested in working on the old mailcheck
codebase, so that's really my only condition for collaboration ^_~.
