Thanks for the welcome.

I will look up genshi.  I thought I had read the wiki, but apparently not,
so I'll give that a better look.  I did read the current projects and
without familiarity with what's going on they don't make a lot of sense :-p.
 I also already found the IRC as well.  I can't make the meetings but
someone mentioned that their times might be changing, so I don't know
whether that would change for me or not.  Even if I can't make the meetings
I'd like to try to eventually contribute.

I appreciate the message,
