Hi DJ Chase,
I did wonder if Id conflated things, no worries.
Ill try again.
* I will be working fulltime to support the development of a Gemini based issue/bug tracker.
* I could volunteer support for hosting/maintaining something for the Gemini community
* I lack the relevant experience to be a leader for the specification
A Gemini-based issue tracker sounds like an great utility, but I think
it may be best to avoid yet another move. I think it will be awesome for
other Gemini-based projects or capsules, though. I'm excited for its
eventual release.
PS: I've included the rest of the thread below so that people can follow
the conversation. I must have accidentally hit "Reply" instead of "Reply
all" last night; I'll look into how I can prevent that in my mail
client.

TBH, (today) I would prefer to focus on coding the aforementioned than performing the necessaries
of hosting/maintenance right now. I could certainly perform moderation in any case, while my coding
comes into place.

Perhaps I should raise my hand for a couple voluntary activities.
As I mentioned on the ML, I will be shall be looking into developing tools for issue
management/bug
tracking.
I shall be able to do this (and suplementary activities) fulltime ONCE I sign a memorandum of
understanding with NLNet - the main thing holding up the project (beyond some resolved health
impediments) is the definitive criteria from which to access my ~GPL3+ output and receive
consumate
'philanthropy'.
If you have thoughts/ideas please email me privately, as Im still taking the burrs off my
submission. Some shadow boxing would be appreciated.
By dint of me going through some administrative hoops (and gumption/luck) I do not consider my
claim to be greater than any other for eligability for implementing/managing a/numerous issue
tracker(s) for the specification if not Gemini projects.
For the record:
* Im no way am I capable to manage the minutae of Gemini's specification.
* IMHO, a pause would be good to allow people to provide more Gemini content and tools.
I'm a bit confused by your email. Are you saying that you want to help
maintain Gemini or that you cannot? Or, are you offering to host the
issue trackers?
I apologize for my lack of understanding, and do not wish to cause any
offense by asking for clarification.
