We have a couple spots we need to fill on the board, and are in

of organizing an election of the Inkscape development community.
I figure this would be a good opportunity to do a quick check among all
existing board members to verify you're still have the time and interest
to continue board work. Please reply to me by the end of the week and
let us know you're willing to continue in your role. Thanks!
I still believe
that my place on the board would be better filled by
someone with a more active role in the community.
