Ni Rick, welcome to the Design team - great to have you here, and also thanks for the nice introduction. Do you need anything to feel comfortable, to know something about FLOSS development? Since you followed the mailing list for a while, you might have noticed that our working style is a bit "organic" at the moment :-)
Concerning the topics Nik mentioned - I currently feel swamped with work, so I (personally) cannot address this before the end of the week (if I can do this...). By the way, I won't be available today - so sorry to all the guys who put their personal information in the wiki, and all the (great to see) lurkers - the blog posting has to wait a day or two. If anybody wants to go ahead, then please do! Enjoy your day! Christoph Am Mittwoch, den 16.02.2011, 01:19 +0100 schrieb Rick Hansson: > Hi, all new friends, > > > I agree with Nik.
