I'd certainly like to help if Harmony starts up again, but I have
little time so I'll have to code little and talk much. I tried to
gather a group back when we stopped, but only one other person
joined. There seems to be more interest now.

I think there are several good reasons to start up again:

* (L)GPL are the best licences we have.
* We can (ie TT will never win a suit if we don't use their source).
* It's fun.
* We are free to make other technical choices than Qt, as long as
  we implement the same interface (themeing, threads, i18n, ...).
* Make sure TT doesn't do anything funny (if we had a perfect
  Win clone... :-)
