Hi,

I've been lurking around for some time, but I guess now is the time to
say hello: I'm a software developer for an ISP in Karlsruhe, Germany
and as a private little pet project I work on a social bookmark
manager.

I applied for a project on sourceforge yesterday. I seperated the
tagging related code from the rest of my project and want to put this
online for others to use. I hope I can put the project online in the
next week. I let you know as soon as it's available...
