Backports Team delegation ========================= I'm sorry for my mistake to copy-and-paste from last delegation text while not remembering Rhonda changed her name. I'd like to immediately fix the appointment for the Backports Team. The correct team member list is:
- Alexander Wirt <formorer>
- Rhonda D'Vine <rhonda>
- Micha Lenk <micha>
This delegation addet the new member Micha Lenk - thanks to Micha for
volunteering for this task. Sorry for Rhonda for my mistake in the
latest, now invalid appointment. The delegation is not time-limited. It
will be effective until further changes by present or future DPLs.
Task Description

usually with the support of the FTP Masters.
