["Leigh Tate" <leigh.tate@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Since we're all volunteers, I think we should each work at our own pace and as we are inclined. I don't think any of us should feel pressured into a specific job, time schedule, or amount of work. If anyone needs to set it aside for a awhile to tend to other responsibilites or interests, so be it. I've always thought differences of opinion brought more options to the table. The fact that we've always worked out an agreement amongst ourselves is a credit to the team as well as the individuals involved. No matter the window dressing, the project is a good one and worthy of being maintained and kept up to date.

Just my 2 cents,
Leigh
