Yes, same here :D

I am 'not' 100% sure whether 'Trivial' changes are listed on the history or
not? I never bothered to watch that closely but I will just do a test after
I will send this to confirm :)

Stop it you both :P
Don't blame yourself. The reason why I am here is to follow up, remind you
(for example), finish the work, etc. We are ONE team. I am sending these
reminders because today I am here, tomorrow, I might not be around. I want
people to follow the same steps that I personally do and I want everyone in
Linux world to say that we, Ubuntu GNOME team is the best of the best!

Now, you guys now what to do next so I am glad :D
