Hi David, I have been looking in old emails where you asked the community to take on the role of release manager, and other than a glancing blow in the "Old version of VirtualBox with the Windows Downloads" thread in boinc_projects, I cannot find any reference to you asking the community - whichever of the two - to take over.
In any case, the volunteer community on whose computers BOINC runs do not read the boinc_projects email list, nor any other email list. They hardly even read the forums, or the news on BOINC's front page. But you may be able to reach them via the Notices tab, as Eric found out when he put the Free Speech post in Seti's News forum. You will at least need to be in a place where the volunteer community resides for them to be able to decide if they want to help out or not. They're not going to see it if it all happens in long running threads on other subjects on - for them - rather obscure email lists. Else it'll be the same (small) group of developers, project engineers and others that read here and they needed to have read the correct thread to have seen your call. Best, -- Jord van der Elst.
