I've been using AfterStep for several months now and have witnessed the
gallant efforts of Sasha, Allanon, and all of the other developers. I can
tell you all would be interested in some help, no? I know ANSI C, what
more should I learn in order to best help you guys? Xlib? GTK? I've
already looked at some of the source code and it seems nice looking enough
to learn quickly. 

I also had an idea for a feature I could implement on my own.  Whenever I
have multiple windows open, my WinList fills up fast. Would people like it
if I modified it so when you had more that a configurable number of
windows open, winlist expanded into two or more rows (also configurable)?
Just a thought.....

I also know some perl, so if you ever wanted the theme.handler turned into
C or updated I could give it a go.

Oh, David, Tigr - I've read parts of the as-devel archives. When will the
bug tracking system come online? I could try helping there too.
