Yeah, good idea to do that, to indicate to potential followers of that 
bugreport that you are actively working on it.

I am interested.  Won't use this tool myself, most likely, but know that 
there is interest among teachers, e.g. in Skolelinux, and want to help 
make it available to them.

But have promised to help with other packages too, and my TODO list is 
piling up :-/

So have patience, perhaps try persuade others to work with you too, and 
do ping me if you feel I am taking too long to get back to you on this.


Kind regards,
