Make sure to add it to the bugtracker!  That way, it won't get lost :)

As I've said before, I really don't have much time for working on
Epiar, but if there's some impossible bug that doesn't seem fixable,
I'll be glad to take a look at it. I've had to fix quite a few of
those at work, so I think I'm pretty good at it by now :P. Ideally,
the bug would be reproducable on Windows, since that's my preferred
working environment, but I can also fire up linux and debug it there.

I don't know if one of our new programmers is working on Windows, but
I've wanted to set up a complete Visual Studio "workspace" for working
with Epiar. I haven't had the time to do that, but if somebody else is
working on Windows and would like to do that, I'd be happy to share
how I was going to do it.

Oh, and before I forget, a big hearty welcome to our new developers!
