To expand on that (let's see if I can do this without accidentally sending again, oops!):<br>
<br>
Roman, I will get in touch with you on a separate email thread to see if we can find an optimal way to coordinate, something that satisfies our schedules and needs. Others please feel free to bug me any time by email (<a href="mailto:dedgrant@gmail.com" target="_parent">dedgrant@gmail.com</a>)
or on freenode #ghc as dedgrant, PST hours.<br>
<br>
In the meantime I'll be auditing some of the related backlogged tickets on trac. If there's something I can do to help further the goal of a Windows Task Force page, please let me know.<br>
<br>
<br>
Pleased to meet everyone!<br>
