Hello all,

Having to prioritize other tasks I'm giving the GWC Integration proposal 
the status of "finished under protest" :)
Meaning it'd be great for any/all of you to give it a read and comment 
on any issue/concern, at your earliest convenience, no rush.
We'll be back when time permits.

Cheers,
Gabriel
