Well clearly I've been stressing about this too much.  I had been working so hard on something to release to satisfy the demand, when I came and saw everything gone, after being so close to reaching that goal, I just snapped.
most likely the admin will help you set it up well...
I'll be in touch when and if I continue and finish what I've started.  I give it a resonably high probability, considering what a shame it would be to let all that invested time go to waste.  I hope this offer still stands when the time comes.  
Anyway, I guess this is all for the best.  I would have been rushing my work, and that's always a bad thing.
