Just for the record, I'm waiting for DSA to allocate hardware so we can start moving things around.

As long as I have a couple of weeks to prepare that would be work quite well for me. I'm not sure any specific dates were mentioned, I couldn't find them on the message (and I have such a huge backlog of -i18n and -l10n-devel to read), just let me know if there are some dates "flying around".
