Ingo, et. al,
First, thanks for the introduction. Ingo, I have seen your questions,
answers and stewardship of blojsom on the mailing list in the past;
your reply comes with a great deal of appreciation. So, allow me to
introduce myself.
My name is Timothy Stone. I have been using and following blojsom for
5 years and have contributed a number of patches and fixes to the 2.x
codeline. Recently, I became more active in the blojsom developer
community and reintroduced myself to David Czarnecki, the "father" of
blojsom.
David has kindly allowed me to steward the project forward to a v3.3
release, and plans for a 3.4 and 3.5.
I can't speak for Mark, but David is quietly participating. I have
always thought of blojsom "resting" not "dead." :)
Among active development plans, I'm seeking help with:
* assistance on migrating to Maven. (v3.4+)
* data model review and improvements (v3.5)
* tests, tests, tests. (v3.3+)
I recently completed a blojsom preview release of v3.3 I called
"Quicker Start" or Quickrstart" using HSQLDB as an in memory database.
The build allows immediate use of blojsom for "a taste." I want to
extend the HSQLDB work to provide test driven development and with
Selinium and more.
Among the plans above and the preview release, I have migrated the SF
repository to SVN (on SF) and have been also been addressing
outstanding defects for a v3.3 release. "trunk" (on the SVN line) is
v3.4.

So, I'm hoping to kick start the blojsom community again following
some of the work by John Resig of jQuery in creating successful open
source projects (I'm a "YUI-man" and I appreciate jQuery, Resig, et.
al, but do not actively speak for jQuery).
Pick up my GPG key! Watch the mailing list or follow development on
twitter @blojsomdev.
I'm looking forward to the community activity again!
Warmest Regards,
Tim
