Catch up with the CC

[Phill Whiteside]

Hi Laura,

As I said, my reply to -release would be held in the moderator queue. In
case any one asks why I used my personal email address; it was because I
owed a personal reply. I did not want to 'hide' before my @ubuntu.com one.

Laura, I took some time off... And then some time out to think out my
apology along with what I may do in the future.

I'm currently planning on going back to wiki area, as it was one of many
areas that also really needs people. To hear the statement "OH, Wiki, the
place documentation goes to die"... was yet another straw on this camel's
back. I had a new tab approved [1].

There is so much work to be done on that area, I am happier going back to
that area. It is only fair that I do follow up on that new tag being
added... And, yes, there may some times when CC is asked in when we have to
decide upon the fate of out dated pages.

Regards,

Phill.
