Hi everyone - first of all, I'd like to apologize for not being able to reply to those of you who contacted me about this year's exchange. The reason is a pretty terrible one, I'm afraid - I recently lost my little brother very unexpectedly and needless to say, everything in my life other than family pretty much disappeared from my priority list.

So I hope you can all understand why I'm not up to run this exchange this year and am unsure about the future as well. I wouldn't want it to die out, so if anyone is willing to help or take it over completely, let me know. Thank you everyone for your understanding. (I promise I'm usually more eloquent but, well.)
