> TPF needs volunteers to make summer of code happen this year.  It sounds 
> like the administrators got stretched too thin in 2005 and 2006, and we 
> really didn't have ourselves together in 2007.  So, I'm proposing a 
> departmental structure under a TPF umbrella, which will localize the 
> cat-herding effects within various large projects (so far, parrot and 
> Catalyst appear to be on board with this.)  I would like to demonstrate 
> that we have our act together this year, so we need to get a solid pool 
> of administrative volunteers and mentors together before the 8th.
