Hi Joe,

Thanks a lot. I am delighted to be awarded the new responsibility. It has been 
a pleasure to work on beagle this far and I am sure it will be even better in 
the future.

For others, there is no more new feature planned for 0.3.0. Lukas is giving 
some finishing touches to beagle-search and Nirbheek is working on making the 
webinterface a bit smoother experience (*). But there is no likelyhood of any 
changes to the core nor any completely new feature. Sort of like "feature 
freeze" but not quite.

(*) e.g. I just came to know that even though my Firefox 1.5 allows me open 
local links, Firefox 2.0 explicitly deny that. We are thinking of other ways 
to open local files from the webinterface.
