Yeah, he wrote me to make sure I wasn't doing one.  He described his as "a 
tutorial on making pluggable applications using Eggs (and associated 
tools)".  I can double-check with him, of course.

The amusing thing at this point is that there are lots of people out there 
who now have more experience using eggs, creating plugins, etc., than I 
have.  I mean, I just designed and implemented this stuff, I'm not actually 
using it yet.  ;)  That won't really change until we start using it for 
Chandler, since I spend very little time on other open-source stuff these days.
