hi i have plenty of sandbox space if needed.

would be great to have some more patches on filmforge to make 
it better. I have kind of held off in that area since it has 
been taking a while just to get bugfixes thru the patch queue 
(although that would probably change if there was more 
momentum around it).

btw i was just noticing that emfield module is getting 
archive.org support, although i haven't tried it out yet.
