Way to go! :)
Yet another *real programming language* supported for FCP!

Some checklist items if you've got some time:
 1) Is it in svn yet?
 2) Have you stuck up a freesite for it?
 3) If there's a freesite, have you submitted it to frost?

Also makes me want to ask (the group):

1) Is the old C 'fcptools' library and its utils being updated to
   FCPv2? Or is it sliding down towards /dev/null?
2) Are there FCP libs in the works for Perl? C++? VB? C#? Tcl? Forth?
   BF?
   Any volunteers for these?

Cheers
David
