I'm really happy we had the chance to get a much closer look at all
the great work Alexander Tivelkov and others have put in to Glare.
Thank you for making time to come to our sessions, demonstrate the
potential ways we could come together on this, and discuss the path
forward.  I'm hopeful this is going to work out and will turn out to
be something we can implement for our use-case in the next few months
:)
