Thanks Francis! I'm pumped! ... Seriously, I'm extremely excited to be moving into this role; LP and the community that make it are really important to me - it's a privilege to take on this challenge. I'm going to save the slides for the Epic where all the Canonical staff will be getting together for a week; I will post a link to them here after the talk has been given. (This is code for 'oh crap I must write them now' :) ). I'm very interested in the things that are working (or not) for us in the design of Launchpad. If there is something you want to accomplish and you're not sure where to start, or how to do it tastefully, or even if you know exactly how to do it but it doesn't feel quite right - please grab hold of me and we can see if we can find or improve your solution together. I want to be really clear about this : its a wide open invite. If you are (Doing something with API's? Putting your project structure in LP? Working on the codebase? Managing an LP instance?) and its not flowing, I'm interested in helping. Call me. (or IRC, or Mail, or mumble or ...). Equally, I'd love to hear about things that work particularly well :- I can always use more tricks in my toolbox :) -Rob _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
