Re: Welcoming Olivier as new committer

Thanks for the kind words everyone!

I have already started, in the past weeks, going through the debbugs
list and sorting issues/PRs on the Codeberg side.

If you have any question, you can always query me on IRC Libera.chat
(nickname: old) or via this email address.

Also, I wanted to offer "office hours" so I can understand better what
the community deems important to fix/enhance in Guile and also to get a
pulse of the Guile ecosystem in general.

For example, I see a lot of patches for Windows recently, but I have
never used Guile myself on Windows.  I need to know more about this
topic to help better.

But first, I need to know if this interest someone!  I was thinking to
make a online meeting (e.g. Jitsi) every 3 months (to begin with).  Any
questions and discussions about Guile are welcomed!

Thanks,
Olivier
