Where's the pull request?

Back when I had just started in grad school, I was talking to an older 
fellow student with whom I shared the adviser. I mentioned the advisor 
had mentioned in passing I should do something (forgot what, maybe read 
a paper or register for a conference) but didn't follow through with it. 
My labmate stopped me in my tracks: "Dude, as soon as something reached 
the level of consciousness of the adviser enough to be mentioned, you 
take it and run with it. Adviser won't bother insisting about it."

Walter and I are busy enough as is working on D to NOT have new work cut 
out for us. Please steal any work you can from us.
