Hi David,
   Thanks very much for the advice. I should mention that it's an
embedded systems project, so there are a lot of magic numbers, memory
addresses and hardware intricacies sprinkled throughout the code.
That may be the toughest part. As for the project being in Zinc, yes,
it's a pretty readable format. (If the dice of history rolled a
little differently we might have all been using Zinc instead of Java,
but that's a topic for a different day.)

   Part of the first thing that I do may have to be to write the
project documentation, if only for my own sanity.

Thanks again,
Dan
