Hi Valorie,

I'd be happy to help where I can. For example, I could create some new
screenshots if you like (please let me know what you need)? As for the
other issues, I'm not sure were I can help out. I'm a GIT user and actively
following the development of Amarok (lurking the dev lists, trying to
understand the GIT commits and obviously I'm recompiling Amarok on a
regular base).

Once in a while I go through Bugzilla to see if I can help out on open
tickets and such.

During the weekend I hang out in #amarok (and sometimes workdays too,
unfortunately irc is not allowed at work else I'd be hanging out there
more).

As for writing stuff, English is not my native language (as you might have
noticed already) and therefor I'm not sure if I'm the right person to help
on e.g. a release announcement or other promotional activities. I'm not a
man of many words either. ;)

In a nutshell, if you would like me to do something, let me know and I'll
see what I can do. :)

Met vriendelijke groet / With kind regards,
Eelko Berkenpies
