You've done some fantastic work!  The only comment I have is that I'd
like to have seen some of your information in bug comment number 1
actually in the description of the bug report.  This isn't a big deal
since yours was the first comment in this bug but with bugs with lots of
comments it can be quite helpful to modify the description.

Based on everyone's feedback, I've approved Chris's membership in the
team.  Welcome and thanks for helping to make Ubuntu even better!
