Dear Tristan,

In that case, perhaps I'll give the history feature a swing someday
soon.

I actually have some (I think) good ideas for the Glade project, but I
want to dive into the code a little bit before I get ahead of myself.
However, I'm glad to hear that you guys need the help, because I'm
willing to offer whatever I can.

I'll also check out the bugzilla for some more accurate information on
the project's direction.

Thanks,
-Andrew
