We are just a shade under the minimum 36 hours I set for this (I'm
leaving the vote open at least while I sleep though). No objections so
far and a good level of support.
One clarification was asked for in the vote thread and I will restate
it here - this Letter of Intent does not form any kind of

Hi Krista,
It's great to hear you find this attractive as a student, that's a good sign
