That's good to know, thanks.



I spoke with Michael on IRC for a while prior to him sending this mail,
and so we already discussed some of the points within. One thing I said
to him was that as a generalist he seems to list all the things he has
worked on, rather than just saying that he is a generalist, like most 
others would. (I don't refer to the application, where you are supposed
to list things that you have worked on).

I think Michael will be a great MOTU, but I had some concerns, and the
application process is the right time to raise them I feel, which is
what I was doing. He has not completely allayed my fears, but I trust
him to not bite off more than he can chew.

Thanks,

James
