I am really sorry, I didn't mention the obvious but guess that wasn't very
obvious and I should have mentioned it already to be extra clear. Sorry
again.

The aim or purpose behind the email I sent (the one you replied), is kind
of preparation and brain provoking [1] so everyone starts to get ready for
the next step which was:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-gnome/2015-August/003373.html

But again, guess that wasn't very clear.

Yesterday, your mind was very much connected to mine :D
So, thanks for saving my time and suggesting this ;)

I am not yet done. I will send 1-3 more emails as per of my vision and
planning of this cycle. I sent one already:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-gnome/2015-August/003373.html

Will start working on the rest ;)

Thank you, great suggestion and I see Alfredo, despite he was so tired, he
sent his so thanks for that :)

What about you, Tim? :P
You're no exception hehe
