I wrote the previous message on a bad day when I was quite depressed. Those that have Googled for CFS/ME know that this is how the disease goes. What I said was basically what I think, but I wanted to make sure that everyone understood that I am retiring from contributing due to illness. I am not leaving because I am angry even though I am more than a bit displeased about the corporate culture of the KDE project. I will continue to use KDE and will do support and report bugs when I am able. If my health improves to the point that my "brain fog" improves long term, I will again try to attempt to contribute to the KDE project. Currently, I am simply not well enough to write code. Those of you that have tried to write code when they had the flu should understand what I am talking about. -- JRT >> Visit http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-devel#unsub to unsubscribe <<
