I will not be able to do this alone - I need the rest of the council and
Gentoo to team up with me on this, no doubt.

A diploma thesis is coming up soon - that will take time away.  Apart
from that Gentoo is among my top 5 focuses.  The numbers of hours I put
into Gentoo per day will range from 0 to 16 hours.

As I have mentioned before I respectfully disagree with this statement.

I would be interested in details on how DevRel is training people.
