It's looking like the things I'll be doing can be split under two 
major categories - the first is "just" generally doing whatever 
Mike needs doing (He's a busy man), and some more autonomous 
things like scouting for the blog. The second category is a bit 
looser, as there are some things I'd like to do that come under 
the community relations remit that aren't as structured - e.g. I 
am very interested in getting a proper working group together to 
try and iterate through designs properly rather than incremental 
DIPs.
