Hi everyone,

first of all thanks for voting me in again as grimoire lead, I'll give
my best.
Here's a list of items that need to be looked at by every section
maintainer:
- all spells in your section should use config_query for persistent
  choices
- all variables used in spells should be declared local to the file
  they're in
- convert at least all the easy spells to BUILD_API=2 (i.e. those that
  don't need any changes besides the BUILD_API=2 line)
As usual, the first priority is bugfixes, second priority to me are
those items above, spell updates come in third.
I'd like to ask all section maintainers to take a look at these items
and send me a short mail about what needs to be done and when you plan
to do it (or if you want help with it) until the next weekend.
For the unmaintained sections, volunteers are needed. Please do that
explicitly by mail or irc to me, so I can help coordinate if multiple
people want to look at the same section.

I'm also looking for someone willing to take a closer look at what needs
to be done with prometheus to get it working with current stable and
devel sorcery branches again. Since p4 is down right now, I can't give a
link to it (and I don't have it in my workspace yet), but it's mostly
written in bash and expect if I'm not mistaken.
