I'm still probably going to be fairly absent for the next couple months
unfortunately - if you guys are happy with what Gabriel is doing I'm fine with
him continuing to maintain bcache tools.

I can give him or someone access to push to my bcache-tools repository so you
guys aren't blocked if I'm off somewhere ignoring email :)

I would like to see the pull requests (and patches too, ideally) posted on the
mailing list too - just with git send-email. Pull requests are fine, it's just
nice see the patch on the list too.
