Not the techinical committee, but the QA committee. There is significant
difference :)
BTW could you make another, shorter alias? E.g. ctte@qa.debian.org ?

I believe netgod was referring to the format of the datafiles used by
the current WNPP software... I think the answer to that one would be
a partial "yes".

Well, it is... maybe this wording would be clearer:
"There's much more than freeness in Debian!"
BTW I think you should make a list of current QA ctte members, and core team
members and put it on a separate page. And BTW I accept your offer for being
in the QA ctte, not only the core team. And again BTW, I'd like if the
e-mail address when referring to me be changed to "joy@debian.org", not this
one.
