I'm not trying to rain on your parade but I have to be honest when I say that really don't think there are enough of us in existence to fund such a project. If I am correct it would be a waste of my time to create an estimate. But I'm certainly willing to come up with a cost estimate after you secure commitments for the majority of my "guesstimate" of the project cost. > You can count on your first $100 from me personally and I'm > sure WSC can be convinced to pitch in as well. Thanks Dan. I know that WSC is interested so perhaps this can be a collaborative project with both WebDNA users and WSC funding the effort. I have thought about a project like this very seripusly during the past year. Although I have no estimate yet, my gut tells me that $20-25K is a more realistic figure than the $10K you gave as an example. If you can get commitments for at least half this amount I would be encouraged to think that it may be possible.
