Hi there, Alberto!

One of the things you'll need is patience, we're all busy working on bugs
and such in preparation for the release of Raring later this month.

I have a couple of concerns of the bugs you've selected to display as
examples of your work.

Do you have any other specific selections of bugs you would like to
showcase?

(as well, bugsquad does not need to receive the application emails, so
please do not include the bugsquad mailing list in your "To" or "Cc" fields)
