I'm too stressed again.

I think this new crisis started on Monday, after a long duathlon weekend (which was fun). My inbox was overflowing, I had lots of mailing-list mboxes with zillions of unread mail waiting for me to ^D over, and my TODO was insane still. The GNOME 2.6.0 deadline has been putting some pressure on me lately, and I currently lack the motivation to fight that front (just when I seem to be motivated to keep up with the d-i translation changes...). I have this feeling that I'm betraying the whole Catalan GNOME team, because the good folks in there are translating like hell lately, and I even find it difficult to find the time to do the corresponding commits. Many Desktop & Developer Platform modules have translations to update. In short, I think I got burnt, and need to have a rest...

I decided I had to pick between triathlon and my big involvement in Free Software stuff. Triathlon is a central part of my life right now (it's the group of friends I've been seeing more regularly in the last 18 months). Some of my tasks in the Free Software community places a lot of pressure on my shoulders, some of them are boring and unpleasant.

I'm going to ask Guillem to take care of debian-l10n-catalan for a while, and see if either Xavi or Aleix want to get a GNOME CVS account so they can do commits too. I guess the Catalan team at the Translation Project I can manage, as it's not time consuming at all (well, maybe I'm just not doing my job correctly ;) and need to have a look at my $HOME to see what other independent translations (e.g. XMMS) I am currently responsible for, and find new homes for them.

As for Debian packages, I'm going to try to get rid of whatever I wanted to get rid already, and keep whatever I was happy with maintaining until now. None of the packages take much of my time lately, as thankfully most of them have slowed down their release cycles a lot.

Another activity that is probably going away RSN is IRC. While it's useful in some cases, it's a time trap. I guess I'll log in when I *really* need to talk to someone. Sorry folks :(

In all, this should give me the necessary time to properly concentrate on my studies, which are a bit stalled lately, and in general... see my old non-triathlon friends again, etc.
