Who the hell are you guys?

In the interest of some form of disclosure, I suppose we'd better let on who we are...
Alex
Code-wrangler and random bodger, currently noodling with Ruby, Lisp, C and too many other bits and pieces to mention. I'm the one to get in touch with if you've got problems, suggestions, or general comments about the site, the converter, or what our plans are next.
Mark
Lightwaver extraordinaire, and long-suffering front-line tester.

A lot of work related to this was done with Armadillo New Media Communications - in particular Steve Kennett helped me hammer out the file layout and made sure the XAML was working.

If you want to see a particularly embarrassing video of us in action, Richard Godfrey over at Microsoft shot an excruciating piece of footage of us explaining what we're up to that's up on the Channel 9 site here.

Capitalism being what it is, this server and its bandwidth cost money. If you find yourself making heavy use of this site, I'd appreciate a donation towards costs - I honestly want to keep it up for as long as possible, but it's already pushing the limits of what I have available. Besides, it'll encourage me to open the source :-)

By way of incentive, the plan is to make a commercial plugin. Any donors at this point will find themselves in line for a steep discount on the plugin when it's available, in addition to being brought into the loop on further developments. Since it's early days yet, I won't go into too many more details here, but feel free to get in touch if you've got any queries.
