thank you all very much for your input i've thought about this a long time and i do still think its premature i take onboard some of the points made here and elsewhere and agree that maybe a full year as an admin isn't strictly necessary however i still believe that a few more months of experience before asking the community to extend their trust of me is a good idea also the present crats have everything more than under control and there are plenty of other things for me to be doing i certainly won't let thing go undone however and would consider running whenever backlogs started to mount again otherwise perhaps this is a matter we could revisit towards then end of this year or start of next thanks especially to u s a for a kindly written nomination scribe
