Thanks John for your involvement so far, and I hope your tight schedules
will relax a bit and we'll see you here again.  It's been, it is and it
will be a pleasure working with you!

In the meantime, I'll try to make sure that the subversion server is
moved to Canonical machines.

Since you used to be one of the most active contributors of real
content, after Christmas holidays time I'll also try to see who's left
for writing documentation.

In the meantime, I'll try to sort out as many boring details as
possible[1], so that we get to a point where the only thing left to do
will be to write stuff, and whoever doesn't do that is bad, bad, bad :)


Ciao,

Enrico


[1] Namely:
 - Can we have screenshots in the Quick Guide or not?  We must have
   them, or it's not a cool guide; however, that would mess thing with
   translators; however, how can we write technical simple cool
   documentation without screenshots?  I'll try to work this out with
   Mako.
 - Moving the svn repository to Canonical machines (Bugzilla #5111)
 - Finding out what deadlines we have (Bugzilla #5115)
 - Finding out to whom the copyright should be assigned (Bugzilla #5145)
 - Recover the "About Ubuntu" page and put it in Subversion
