Well, let me introduce myself then.

I was the release manager for Tomcat 3.1 and pretty much all of the
releases of Ant until 1.0.  I was a very active coder in both (primarily
focusing on getting both to work on JDK 1.1 and Windows) until they got
"good enough" for my purposes at which point I focused on community
building activities.  I spent some time nurturing the xml-soap subproject
and getting the Bean Scripting Framework open sourced.  Most recently, my
focus has been on a proposal for jakarta-alexandria by the name of "Gump",
and occasionally nudging the commons proposal in the direction I would like
to see it headed.

Watch this space.  Take a look at the agenda I posted.  Pay particular
attention to items 3.2 and 5.

Also item 4.2 is the key towards the long term solution.  I personally like
the model of the Apache board where every year every board seat is up for
re-election, and all of the members get an opportunity to nominate and vote
for their choice.

P.S.  If you want to see who has karma to which project, "cvs checkout
CVSROOT".  Look at a file by the name of avail.  Meanwhile, here is that
information in a more convenient form:
