Hey there,

I literally just deleted my last.fm account and signed up for libre, on
account of Tim's recommendation. I read the articles about passing around
user data, to be frank if they are going to treat / think of treating me
like some sort of 'data cow' they have lost my custom!

Looking forward to helping out on this project.

Regards,
