Hi, +1 we do a very good job already.

I'm ready to give a hand for the communication process in the future.

Sidenotes, do we have sort of a task management platform somewhere? I
tend to like the kanban boards more and more (gitlab / github / trello)
. That helps a lot to plan tasks in a distributed context.

Best regards

Régis
