It's not so much that, all these offers of 'university computers' could easily be set up to run patchy-merge-staging. Patchy-test while very important doesn't take too much of my LP time (I can run it in the background whenever I am at my computer), so that doesn't bother me doing that at all, it's more a case of LP doc work not getting done :) It's all fascinating stuff to me, so I don't mind poking with GUB but I am not sure if it is the best use of my time considering what I can do now (i.e. doc and bug squad) and what might drop if I moved to other work. Also are there other tasks (i.e. website building) that might be less of a learning curve for me (take extra work off of Graham) that might be better for me to start to tackle. Either way I don't mind what I end up doing - technical skill-set accepted. Being 'overwhelmed' isn't anything I ever worry about, there's always lots to do but only a finite amount of time to do it in.
