[Ldsoss] Testors for FamilySearch API, Developer Website, and Support

[Jesse Stay]

I should mention this is an excellent opportunity for you to be a
contributor to open source - this should be an opportunity for us to
write libraries (WWW::LDS::FamilySearch?) for the various languages we
write in, so when it is released there is something out there for
others to use.
