Like I said, e-mails to me have pretty much stopped entirely, so I could
certainly take care of something like this. It seems that a status team
would be a good idea -- Luke could do the newsletter status updates, I
could do the IK team status, perhaps others. I don't know how much work it
would be to do *every* team -- perhaps too much... but hey, we can add
people. This is a non-technical position that would be easy to fill.

I would love to have someone on my team (or as a member of a Status Team) who's job it was to keep the various IK team status indicators up-to-date: completion info on the web page, tidbits for newsletters, whatever. In all honesty, in the hierarchy of things I have to get done in the limited time I have, status updates come in dead last. I have a hard enough time finding time to code as it is! =\

Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves. -William Pitt, British prime-minister (1759-1806)
