Z98 and me divided the Release Engineering work into caring about the
Changelog (Z98) and branching/packaging the releases (me) long time ago.
And looking at who created the initial changelogs in the past and hounded
devs about getting their changes in, I don't think that this situation has
changed.

Nevertheless, if there is another person willing to help with
branching/packaging, I would gladly coach him a bit on this. Although I like
the job, I don't want the release to depend exclusively on me, especially
because I'll probably have less time for it in the future.
Even though most of the process is described at
http://www.reactos.org/wiki/ReactOS_Release_Engineer, there may still be
some open questions.

I feel that I have enough official and inofficial jobs to care about in the
project, so I certainly won't have time to take over the Website Coordinator
position as well.
If Danny is okay with it, I would gladly suggest him for the position.

I also want to underline that I stand behind his recent actions concerning
the Wiki, since they were based on rules we both decided on when Wiki
cleanup began over a year ago.
Anyway, if people request it, we may still change the rules about what
content goes into the Wiki and what content does not.

Best regards,

Colin
