I guess it's not a shoo-in yet, but it certainly was a pleasant surprise logging in this morning with a 'popular' (read lots of replies...) message and a bunch of +1s attached!
Perhaps I might even pick up a Java book and figure out how to add command line parameters to FOP (I'm hoping I won't have to figure out the issue that Glen and Andreas raised[1] in February, though...:-p).
Thanks for the votes of confidence! I look forward to serving the FOP community in any way that I can (and right now, I guess that means as the Web Maestro!)...

Team,
Waxing chutzpaic, I'd like us to try again to make Clay a committer on this project. You may recall his committership didn't pass last December (I can't remember who blocked it, it might have been Jeremias ;-), but especially with the loss of Victor, I think it's becoming increasingly evident our need for a 'Web Maestro' to take care of our site.
He has been putting in a remarkably solid, loyal effort for our project since Nov. 2002 [1], and also has made himself known to Forrest-Dev on issues regarding our site--most recently, in fixing the pesky breadcrumb [2] problem for us. He has also been a leading evangelist on the commercial usage of FOP on the FOP-user site [3], hence a welcome inspiration for both us developers and our users.
The updates and issues he has brought up to us this week, I'm sure he would be happy to take care of for us, just as soon as we provide him write access. I also hope he develops a psychological "concept of ownership" of our website over time, resulting in it looking increasingly top-notch.
So let me start off the voting: +1.
Thanks, Glen
