I prefere to call it a development version, but otherwise yes.

Sounds great.

Yes, and maybe write some docs also, if needed.

That's a bummer.  Note that you don't need a server class machine, just
a machine on the internet.  So you could install it on your average
internet connected windows 2K machine, or linux machine, or whatever.

There are two demo sites, one of which is the stable version and the other
of which is CVS HEAD.  I'm not sure if it is updated often or not, but I bet
if we ask we can get it updated if needed.  See http://www.horde.org/demo/

Probably people would volunteer, if the above demo site isn't sufficient.

That would be great!  Try the demo site first, if that doesn't work, post
another message for an account on someone's server.

> Thank you very much.

Welcome.
