Yes, that's a good thing. I was suggesting you ask for resubmission more easily (instead of waiting for an answer). > > > May be we could try to find a few more volunteers?

We post more or less proeminent notices, often at Savannah.gnu.org, sometimes involving the GNU Volunteers Coordinators. This is a tedious process because some of the volunteers start helping and are being taught about project approval, but do not stay for long - and usually I'm the one who does the teaching ;) I'd be in favor of pinging the recently helping people who recently "disappeared", and ask Dennis if he's still interested in the job (http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/savannah-hackers-public/2008-04/msg00013.html) -- Sylvain
