Roger,

I'm certainly willing to help where I can - main problem would be time ;-)
Beta testing, some code snippets (C or VB), etc.
Key feature for me would be the layered database search - like search for an artists first and then for all albums of that artist, etc.
That said, I wanted to make the statement, that IMHO the original ARM is an awesome piece of software - sure, has some limitations, but it works great and while so many people have been writing replacements, none of them has even come slightly close to the easy installation of the ARM. With ARM, for the most part, its install it and go. Can't say that of any of the replacements! So, while we're excited that you are rewriting the ARM, don't think noone appreciates the original...
