I would like to throw my name as well as my co-worker Yoshii Russell in the
hat for this.  

The two of us have used SAX for a while and are very interested in
participating in this effort.

Thanks,
Dan

Ok, but both the suggestions you quote above are mine. I'm Irish, so 3 is an
allowable magic number :) (as well as very good number for getting things
done). Soon after it occurred that per language involvement might also be
worth thinking about.

Since there are 3 volunteers, maybe that's enough for a handover? In other
words, if anyone wants in or isn't happy with this, now is a good time to
pipe up.
