1 Hello dear followers,
2
3 tonight after a some deliberation I have decided to step down as gnome
4 lead in favor of AllanonJL. As far as I am concerned AllanonJL has been
5 the acting lead for quite a while now, while I was too busy to devote
6 much time to Gentoo and as such it was the only logical next step.
7
8 This doesn't mean I will leave Gentoo, it just means I'm going to get
9 myself out of a few herds and positions I don't belong in anymore.
10 Trying to focus on the things I can still do to keep Gentoo the one
11 distro I love to use.
12
13 I'd like to say thanks to Spider, Obz, Leonardop, Dang,
14 Compnerd, AllanonJL, Zaheer and all the other contributors over time on
15 bugzilla and IRC for bringing gnome on Gentoo where it currently is.
16
17 Also I'd like to invite everyone interested in helping gnome on Gentoo
18 to join #gentoo-desktop on freenode IRC, mail us directly or triage bugs
19 on bugzilla. We can certainly use more help on pretty much any level,
20 from user-testing to full blown fresh developers getting their hands
21 dirty.
22
23 thanks for your time,
24 Marinus
