typo in the agreement?

This may be a little nit-picky, but since it's a legal agreement, thought I would mention it. Seems like a typo in the last few words of Section 2:
Shouldn't it say "on terms more restrictive *than* the terms of this Agreement." instead of "on terms more restrictive *that* the terms of this Agreement." ?

Tom W. is the one to respond to your submission of the agreement via email. He informed me a day or two ago that he's pretty busy for the next few days, but I am sure he will get to your submission as soon as he can.
And, dougk, I'll make sure he notices your suggestion. Thanks.

I should be able to help with the PHP programming, at least occasionally.

Good catch. I've fixed it.

When helping with this project, some of the documents are in OpenOffice formats. While searching I found out that Microsoft has written a translator and is financing a plugin on SourceForge for Microsoft Word. The plugin will work with Word 2003, Word XP, or Word 2007.
Here is the link for anyone interested:
ODF plugin for Word

Ah you beat me to it. I was just testing that plugin out. Anyway it does interface nicely into Word 2007 except it is a converter which means it converts the documents into Docx and then opens up the docx file and then when you save (must save using the special menu) it converts the docx into a odt which you must overwrite the previous one with.
Also you lose some features of the document but we'll see how that goes.

Ok, I have finally uploaded and committed the original website GUI files that I made a while back for this project. Just get the latest from the SVN repository.
NOTE: You have to join the project by filling out the form Tom W. posted in order to have access to the SVN repository.
Please someone make them better!
Let get this project going!!!
P.S. Also there is an IRC chat that you can join if you want to discuss the details of this project. Tom W. posted the information in [thread=565]this thread[/thread].
How to proceed?

Hi folks,
I'm not quite clear on where we go from here. Tom, are we waiting for a formal go-ahead from you? Is all communication on this project taking place on the IRC chat you set up, rather than on this forum? Should we just review the files mkmurray posted and send feedback on whatever we notice, or do you want feedback on specific aspects of the project?
Just want to make sure I'm clear on the goals and priorities.
Thanks!
Kathryn
