Re: Article about Midnight Commander on OpenSource.com

Yes, I was looking for more than superficial feedback - so thank you. And 
perhaps the publicity will attract some developers.

My personal opinion, generic as it is because I have been here only a couple 
weeks, is that someone who has been here for a while should step into the lead 
role. I am willing to assist by learning more about the code. Based on the 
recent posts to this list, it seems that someone who can create a defined 
process would be desirable.

Just my 2 cents worth.
