I understand.
 
My view when I nominated ZC4 was that he was a very nice person,
technically capable and politically a virgin, therefor would go down a lot
easier without too much sidelines-debate. He would have done an excellent
job. I also had been looking at ways of downscaling my involvement. It
still takes too much of my time, especially with a number of full-scale
mail-wars going on to the east of me.
