Don't worry, I am calm about this issue and would not
mind being offloaded somewhat. Considering the unexpected
size of this thread I hope that should be possible.

To clarify: much is prototyping as a basis for more specific
discussions. Thus there is a lot of rework before it gets even
functional. Moreover some prototypes are just that and have
not been completed for lack of resources and time.

So far we have 2 announcements, I started both and wrote most of
them. Also I started renewed contacts with Redhat. And so on.
That is in the past. I would not mind if someone else took over
this part or joined me in a PR group. There is a lot of work to
be done that I have not found the time for yet.

Media likes to talk with someone that is local and speak their
own language, a person rather than a mailing list. Announcements
and press statements should have points of contact. That is why
I set this up. Again I would not mind if someone took my position
here, I still feel these should be real, designated positions.
