I guess this is a case of once bitten, shy twice - I don't want to promise more than I can deliver so including that detail was my way of managing expectations. Glad it was helpful - given your vast experience running ApacheCon your feedback and comments are very important to me. > And > thanks to all the people that sent me "did you see this thread?!" > messages while I was traveling. :-) :-D Not sure if I should be scared now or not - the scared little human in myself is now afraid of the amount of people that are watching me now ;) > In short, yes, I'm in favor of this proposal, with all my various hats > on, and will do whatever I can to support it. \ | / - :-) - / | \ Very much appreciated!

Thank you! Cheers, Isabel (heading to the Aquarium Berlini* with family now, so offline for the coming few hours) * http://www.aquarium-berlin.de/en - if anyone needs more links to what to do in Berlin with family, let me know: Happy to share links to beaches, boats, farms, a museum with one of the first computers ever built, parks, adventure playgrounds, places where you can be an astronaut, lakes and the like. Just in case you need to convince other people to fly here together with you. -- Sorry for any typos: Mail was typed in vim, written in mutt, via ssh (most likely involving some kind of mobile connection only.) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@community.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@community.apache.org
