I think being a member of a team is a cooperative effort to improve something which an individual alone can never achieve. I cannot find the page at the moment but there are some mailing list graphs on the wiki which clearly indicate that the team's prime time was back in 2008/2009 when you, Gonéri, Miriam, Paul, Jonathan, Ansgar, Evgeni, Rhonda and other contributors introduced a lot of new games to Debian. My point is that there is no absolute definition what a "team" should be like. In German the term team is also translated into Mannschaft whereas the second part of the word, "-schaft", is derived from the verb schaffen meaning to accomplish, to create or managing something. That's exactly what "team" means to me. I don't mind if people are focussing only on their packages as long as they do an outstanding job but i strongly believe that it is more fun to work together on common problems. Every Debian team needs sponsors and I am really grateful that you have returned to this team. Keep up the good work Markus
