etcl : estimate of aggregate hours 2012 and so far in 2013

(Mins: 30) For calendar year 2012, I estimated about 150 to 180 hours (going through blog posts and email archives). After talking with Martin upon his return, I can tighten that estimate to between 170 and 180 hours. For first quarter of calendar years 2013, I estimated about 30 to 40 hours. Again after talking with Martin, I can narrow that to between 36 and 40 hours.
