Hi Steven,<div><br></div><div>sorry, i meant no disrespect - I meant "bureaucracy" in the broadest sense possible :) Just a process that takes time because people have to approve. Thank you for looking into it! </div>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"><div style="word-wrap:break-word">Hey Lodewijk,<div><br></div><div>No bureaucracy hold up, it's merely the weekend and the office is empty (I know, because I was there by myself yesterday). I'm going to work today to get your banner up as quickly as possible, as well as others I've received in the last couple days.</div>
<div><br></div><div>If anyone feels like they're being held up in any way, I apologize for the delay. If you're in a hurry, I strongly encourage everyone to use the tools that are always at your disposal and that don't need any help or approval from the Foundation to use, such as watchlist notices, the sitenotice function, and messages to user talk pages (by bot or by hand). </div>

The deadline for registering is *january 11*. However, the request is apparently stuck in bureaucracy with some people who have to approve it first... Could someone please help me here and get this up (or tell me how I can speed up the process)? I know I could have sent this earlier, sorry for that - but right now we're already quite near the deadline :) </div>
