Dear all, I am the one 4 candidates who applied by sending an email directly to Tapani, as his email suggested to let *him* know as soon as possible so I thought volunteering off-list is fine. I also wanted to avoid long threads of plus 1s, as it usually happens. Sorry for any confusion - I answered to Tapani directly that I can volunteer right after he sent the initial email to the list, and I couldn't foresee how this would develop.
