I want to echo Leah's thanks to Jason for all his great leadership here.  I've
been a fan of nose and now am a super fan of nose2, which we're using in
Mailman 3 now.

I would be happy to help contribute to nose2 as time allows, but I have too
many other FLOSS projects on the burner right now to take over as primary
maintainer.  I agree that John is awesome, so maybe we can convince him to
multi-nose. :)
