Where are we going? (Not a rant)

MATE IS growing. And MATE developers are starting to contribute to Gnome. :)

Some additional information in case anyone cares:
I heard that there are 5 or so MATE developers. Two of which have taken over a GNOME module (gnome-main-menu) as of last week or so. Meaning:
they have maintainer (which is different from just developer status). As a result, these two maintainers have GNOME git accounts plus they can approve git accounts for other people. I've explicitly said to them that they it is fine to do so (grant git accounts) for all other MATE developers (obviously not limited to MATE).

X vs Y vs Z (e.g. GNOME/MATE/XFCE) discussions are boring. :P
