Hi Francis, I just want to thank you all you effort so far. I knew that we have to present the release to the incubator PMC for approval, but I did not remember that our internal vote had to be approved by the mentors. Sorry.
I am on holiday with my family at the moment and I only have limited internet access. But if there is anything I can do, please let me know.
