	Last year a set of undergraduate students worked on an X bitmap
	font editor for me, using a PixelEditor widget I wrote for the
	Free Widget Foundation effort.  The program was not finished, but
	the functionality and robustness of the program was better than
	xfed, the only alternative I am aware of).

	Since there is often interest in this group about X font editors,
	I am looking for a few (one or two) good programmers to volunteer
	to help me redesign and finish this program.  I am writing a thesis
	this summer, and don't have time to do this myself.  But if people
	are interested, would could probably get a decent program done that
	people would actually use.  Any takers?
