Yes, sure.

Already submitted for approval the 'IBObjects - Examples,Docs' project
on SourceForge.

NOTE: As almost anyone knows the SourceForge.Net is the *best* hosting
service for the things we want. (If I'm wrong, please someone correct
me). But because SorceForge in its terms allows _only_ open-source
projects I "masked" our project in the form of documentation & examples.
So, someone will post there one-two examples from IBO distro (Jason?) in
order to have 'something' and we can use the entire infrastructure for
the main library (eg. the tracker will have the library's problems, not
only the ones for the examples posted there). The examples are MIT
'licensed' (http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php).

Project details: (feel free to comment - subject to change) - but please
DON'T find the color of the Bikeshed! :-)

I plan to transfer the ownership of the project to Jason (IOW make him
an admin of the project) as soon as the project gets approved and Jason
will have an SF account. IOW go to http://sourceforge.net and register.

HTH,
