I do not know for Olav at the moment, but I am not hanging out on #bugs
on a regular basis.
But I am trying to fulfill new product requests as quickly as possible.
They should not remain untouched longer than one or two weeks.
As every volunteer my spare time is limited and whenever I am away
for some time (like vacation etc.) requests may linger for a while.

I do not know if there is any additional volunteer for this job, but
I'd be happy to teach someone how to do it.

I'd rather have Olav consent on this first.
