Hi everyone,

The Muse milestone vote has been quiet, so I thought I would ping the PMC 
members and see if there were additional questions about the project. 
We've had some initial success bringing different organizations together 
through our conference calls and reaching out to other OSS projects, so I 
feel like the Muse community has a potential to grow a lot in the coming 
months. This milestone starts us on the road to delivering future 
milestones with some regularity and adding vibrancy to the project, 
similar to the Eclipse Callisto campaign:

        http://www.eclipse.org/org/press-release/20060626callisto.php

That said, not everyone voting can keep up with every project, so I'd like 
to make sure there aren't any outstanding questions we could answer. I 
know many of you are probably still sleeping (and I'll be sleeping when 
you respond!), but I'll be up very early tomorrow so hopefully I can reply 
in time to catch everyone (if someone doesn't beat me to it).

Thanks!
Dan
