Happy New Year everybody!

This will probably be the last email to this list. As there were no
objections to the procedure outlined below, I am about to execute the
last step and remove us all from address@hidden.

Feel free to contact the edu-team [3] or myself if you have any
questions or concerns or see the need for a dedicated edu list in the
future.

So long, and thanks for all fish!
