Author XForms - can I help

Hello--

I'm a web programmer and I super interested in seeing XForms take off
in FireFox. I've read the "How Can I Help" section over on
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/xforms/ but I'm not sure where to get
started. I haven't been involved in Mozilla and though I've done some
C++, I do more in PHP/Java/.NET. If I wanted to contribute test XForms
documents or maybe some basic PHP/JSP/ASP.NET programs (samples/tests),
is there a good place to do that?

I think XForms support--especially if it gets into the main release of
FireFox--would have huge potential for winning over web programmers who
are sick of writing all the extra plumbing needed for validation and
converting flat form data into structured data...I'm looking forward to
the day when one or two XML Schema files actually define the data on
the client layer, in the business logic layer, and in the storage layer
of the typical web application. Allan, Morten, Olli, Aaron, Brian, and
others...thanks!
