Sorry to hear about your health issues, take good care! I agree we are now on
an impossible schedule: I believe we still don't have any time slot agreed upon
for the 4 interviews, and we only have about 40 hours to go.
Tomorrow during the day I am very busy dealing with Real Life, so _I_ won't be
available then for giving any irc support. (And I didn't ask for backup
volunteers for that yet...)
I guess we should call it a day and try better next year...
Any other opinions?
Bye,
Joost
PS: Lessons learned: I started 3 weeks before the deadline. Apparently that's
too late. And: Maybe we should use better communication channels? More on
public lists? Get another mail alias with all interested people? Use matrix
or some other "modern" protocol? Make more use of cryptpad?
