I should be saying "Thanks" to you!  Org Babel is truly great work; I
use it almost every day of my life.

Yes, of course, it would be an honor to give back to the Org
community.  And I'm not just saying that.

OK, I'll get started on that right away.

Thanks for the kind words, and I would be happy to contribute to worg.
 I've been sitting on my hands about worg so far because I'm scared
I'm going to break it with something that isn't compatible with the
old exporter.  In an earlier message Bastien indicated that Org 8.0
might be coming out in a few weeks (thanks, Bastien!) and I've been
trying to wait for it patiently.

In the meantime, maybe I'll check out the maintenance branch and dig
up those old configurations to get the ball rolling on my side.
