I am assuming that Mark will stay on. He's on an extended vacation right now, IIRC, so we won't hear from him for a while. However, I understand he's subscribed to the mailing lists with his new e-mail address. Also, we've recently seen a slight in crease in interest for Bloodhound from outside this team, and we're actively working on promoting the project. Given all the above, and taking into account the fact that everything else regarding this project is proceeding smoothly, I've decided that circumstances have changed enough to warrant graduation. It's not as cut-and-dried as I'd like it, but on the other hand, I trust BH will expand its user base soon. -- Brane -- Branko Čibej Director of Subversion | WANdisco | www.wandisco.com
