ob ad in 2021, which we have now completed hiring for.

Thanks for the warm welcome :) In the next three months, I will
try to continue improving our documentation tooling even further.

If you have suggestions or ideas about things to improve, let
me know either by email or just ping me in #kde-docs:kde.org :)

Cheers,
Carl
