Thanks Kelvin, and thanks to everyone who supported this. I'm happy to
be part of the team. 

My main area of interest is the CTS so if anyone has any suggestions for
improving the CTS, please let me know. I'm currently working on donating
a number of test cases from Rogue Wave's SDO test suite so that they
become part of the CTS.

Thanks,

Andy.

That's voting time up and with my +1 that makes 13 +1s (including 1 non
