Hi Alex, Charles,

I follow this list closely and would love to get more involve, but
sadly I haven't had the time to contribute. I just finish my school
semester and will have a couple of months where I'll have more time to
devote.

I'll be happy and very interested to help. I don't have much
experience with serious packaging work, but if someone is willing to
tutor me in the beginning I should be able to get a grasp of the
process quite fast, as I do have some basic experience.

I'll start by working on the Tophat package and getting as ready as I
can, and maybe we can work from there.

Thanks,
Carlos
