Hello Martin!

Of course.  This is called "marketing". :-)

1. They have worked on the takover for almost a year.
2. It is not clear whether he was laid off or decided to quit. And
   I certainly wouldn't know.

Hmmm... I have seen a number of OGB members post in the various lists.
What do you want them to do?  Post "yes, there will be 2010.03" every
day?

Hmmm... I am glad I can change the backdrop. :-)

Because they have other things to do?
