It will take some time to learn how this one works, but another reason
I'm interested in maintaining writegood-mode is I'm certain I can
contribute to it.  Preliminary packaging is here:
ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-emacsen/pkg/writegood-mode.git

Oh, I failed to ask in the writeroom RFP thread: Do you like the idea
of teaming up for that mini project (or a similar project).

I can't wait until Grammalecte is ready! :-)  How does it compare to a
famous business wordprocessor's grammar check, or to bonpatron?

Cheers,
Nicholas
