First and foremost: I can't 100% guarantee the accuracy of the content, especially the documentation and explanations included with the programs. I understand that time and interest will be the deciding factors here, but it would be very nice if a senior member could give advice/correction/support during development. Secondly, code quality. Should the code be pre-reviewed by a senior supervisor to avoid unnecessary reviews of clumsy code, or can I proceed with a normal pull request?

Just send a pull request so we can review it. We are nice people so do
not worry :-).

Thanks: Magnus
