Jorge,

Thank you for your many year of service, it has been much appreciated.

I'm cross posting this to SAC (sys admin) list. Specifically those 
interested in helping with these roles should join the SAC mailing list
* *Mailman & Nabble * admin
* *OSGeo Planet*

Looking forward to new contributors.

Thanks,
Alex
