Also what is the point of forcing us into this monthly reporting cycle? It is kinda stressing me out. Is this a new thing just to harass me into retirement.
Also I asked about this: http://apache-incubator-general.996316.n3.nabble.com/Suggestion-for-podling-reminder-report-emails-td59035.html . Whats up with that? I mean its so worth wild to start this close down the podling convo like every month, but no one can go out and fix the email.
