Indeed, he have a promising number of new contributors, are you guys 
interested in icon development? It is a good opportunity for learning...

And it seems like a good opportunity for Echo, the team has matured 
enough, he should know already how to handle the regular tasks and Echo 
is already work in progress for quite some time (2 years?), maybe *now* 
is the time to take a hard decision: use it or kill it.
