I'm glad you spoke up first Chris, because I have questions in a similar 
vein.  Namely, how can I help?  I have a few years of C under my belt, but 
I never got to the point where I'd be comfy hacking PHP.  (I'd like to get 
there eventually, I'm just not there yet.)

So, am I being lazy, have I missed some docs on the web regarding how to 
be useful, or how to become familiar enough with the PHP code to start 
lending a hand with the debugging?  Or are we expected to learn it 
ourselves, on our own, in order to be accepted into "the club" as it were? 
(Not that there's anything wrong with that, it's just that a lot of groups 
require self-validation like that.)

Thanks for any help,
Dan
