I'd say your karma is acting here, you're a good RM, so the hat
just come back :-D

But if you need help in any way and that I can learn the RM

I saw Guillermo popping for that one, count me as a backup or

I did work on the subject in the past to the point where I could
run the full test suite with some tricks (mostly related to /tmp
being a bit special under OS X), but I never looked back and
things may have regressed.

I'm interested in hpss and network performance related tasks, so
count me on that one too.
