Hmm.  Well, I have this little voice whispering in the back
of my mind, with the warning "Be careful what you wish for,
you just may get it...".

That said, I would be willing to find out what other things
I'd need to know to be a committer, what additional mailing
lists to join, etc.  I really am going to be rather busy for
a few more weeks here, so I'd probably have to start slow to
get the feel of how to do things.  Still, I do have this long
list of changes that I'd like to move from "my lpr" to the
standard one, and I guess I'd rather be in the firing line
for those than waiting impatiently for someone else to have
the time to commit the changes.
