One thing people shouldn't worry about is over-emphasis on the US from the technical team. Of those whose nationality I know or have a good idea of, here's how the regularly active participants are split:
de: 4 uk: 1 fr: 2 belgium: 1 baltic states: 1 EUROPE TOTAL: 9
Australia: 2
US: 1 (plus JW and Jason who are around less than most)
We should be considerate of clear the US minority on the technical team.:)
