Nicholas and Ivo, you seem to be most active on this portion of the
project:
OK, so where might I fit into all of this? I have some ideas of
things I'd like to do in the long run, but I don't know the code yet
at all. I'd love to help accomplish some task(s) related to the GUI
which will help the project (bugs/features/docs) but I need a bit of
direction. What would help you most right now? I'd really like to
contribute primarily in the form of documented code, but if straight
documentation is what you need and it'll help me get familiar - let
me know. Just please give me a discreet and manageable task.
Cheers!

I'm interested in trying out a translation into either Korean and/or
Hebrew. I'm fluent in neither and I've never done a localisation
before, but I'd really like to try it. Basically, don't count on my
success, but let me give it a shot if you don't mind.
Cheers!
