Failing in just about every possible way since 05. No financial |

reporting, and culmination was charter being revoked in 07. |

Fail safes, so get over it. Your making it a much bigger deal than it |

is. |

Both Java and amd64 suffered from my time loss to the |
32 |
trustees/foundation. Both will gain now from my resignation. Even then, |
33 |
if I dropped amd64, that's more focus for Java. But really I did amd64 |
34 |
as a compliment to Java. Since there were delays with keywording and |
35 |
stabilization. |
