Yes, you reched the correct place!

I would be happy to discuss collaboration/comparison with you - and I am 
sure others would as well.

Also, please do not treat our current structures as written in stone: If 
you find that they are too limiting for your use, please do share your 
concerns with us, and it might be that we decide to extend to suite your 
needs :-)

We can continue discussing here on this mailinglist if you are 
comfortable with that.  If you prefer personal discussion and then 
summarize findings in public afterwards, then I am fine with e-mail, irc 
and SIP, and also Jabber - but I am lousy at writing summaries, so would 
appreciate if then you took care of that part ;-)

Right now and a week onwards I am in Peru with limited bandwidth, so 
e-mail is most convenient.  Else we generally hang out on OFTC.net in 
the #debian-js where I am "jonas", and my Jabber and SIP id is 
jonas at jones.dk (i.e. not same as my email address).

Looking forward to discussing with you,


 - Jonas
