So promise me to go on with it ;) think the curry powder you probably have already hehe anything I can do to help please ask. One thing this maybe a good thing to relax and do stuff you love, how it goes nobody know but you sure will meet new people, learn and do something with passion. And let it only take the time you have ..
Sounds like a cool project; hehe you need explain more for me what your daily work is about :)
