I've created a SF project, uploaded the 1.0.6 pristine source file and
created a SF git repository for that source.  I would like others to
help manage this project, anyone interested please contact me directly.
I didn't think this precious source code should just lay in wait for
other wolves and just took the initiative to keep it publicly available
and open.  I don't think we should worry with a web URL at the moment
since SF provides a wiki with its projects.  In 3 days the uploaded file
has been downloaded 15 times so there is definitely interest it this
project.
