Hi Alvin,

that's a pity...

(I think nobody cares if you fixed bugs, wrote lots of website
articles, or developed a cool new feature - the new Fiscal Sponsorship
Agreement with the Software Freedom Conservancy makes it clear that
everyone is welcome, not just developers - if you can believe it,
there were people who nominated *me*... and I've never even touched a
single line of C++.
Btw. I find bug fixing more important than cool new features... it's
what made 0.48.5 the best software I ever had on my computer. It
*never* crashed, and usually worked.)

Of course you can nominate others - thank you for that!
Unfortunately, ~suv already declined :/

I wish you all the best for your other projects, and hope to still see
you around here in the future,

Kind regards,
 Maren
