Excellent! I am glad you stepped up to this. John, I hope you have it in you to delegate. You put together a great community of users and contributors, everybody has their experience and skills, you don't need to know everything in order to run a successful project. I see many tasks that can be done by more than one person: 1. Development. 2. Table authoring. 3. Maintaining (bug triaging). 4. Releasing. Cheers, Eitan.
