 Yes, thanks for taking care of the deadline, I wasn't aware of it.
I'll join the pkg-vim list for the sake of it. I guess we'll find some
place for me in the team, let's work it out at the debconf, though.

 Not at all. I thought about doing my syntax files in some version
control anyway, and if I can do all of them in there it's fine with me.
Including of kicking my lazy ass and working on the translation to
german again, too.

 Oh, I guess I'll find my way through the repo, it's not the first time
I'm using version control; might it be cvs, svn or bzr. :)

 Alright, but I can't promise anything before mexico, because there is
things to finish, cleanups to do at home (my niece is moving in, quite
some stuff cluttered around, ...), so...

 See you in HEL^H^H^H.mx
