Thanks Ian for all the work you've put into the project. I hope I'll
be a deserving maintainer.

I don't have any immediate plans as I've already committed most of the
improvements I thought were most important. There's a community effort
to improve the test coverage which we'll merge into the trunk sometime
soon. The bug fixing was quite quick recently, I think, and I intend
to keep it that way.

Python 3 port will need to happen eventually, but I don't think I'll
be pressing to make it happen ASAP.

Also, as Ian mentioned, I'll be blogging about WebOb at http://self.maluke.com/
