> Volunteer pledge drive! Please forward this to your local PM groups.

> 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.

> Mentors and project ideas needed:
