I think the management and unification provided by the= =20 council is critical, but I just don't have the time to commit on a=20 regular basis that's necessary to do a good job. I'm trying to finish my=20 Ph.D. and applying for postdoctoral fellowships, and along with my new=20 daughter, that means I can't promise any regular commitment of time. Instead, I expect to spend what Gentoo time I have thinking and talking=20 about our future direction and working to innovate rather than managing=20 that innovation. I have the utmost confidence that others can fill my=20 place on the council. Therefore, it's more important for me to focus on=20 innovation, which I feel is driven by individual developers, including=20 me. I'm very excited to restart working on projects that I've mostly=20 dropped because of my council commitment, such as helping with the git=20 conversion, spending more time on PR, and finishing the test-suite=20 framework for eclasses, among other things. I'm still available for advice about anything council-related, so feel=20 free to ask at any point. --=20 Thanks, Donnie Donnie Berkholz Developer, Gentoo Linux Blog: http://dberkholz.wordpress.com --gKMricLos+KVdGMg Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.11 (GNU/Linux) iEYEABECAAYFAkobeYkACgkQXVaO67S1rtvSNgCgwL0ez+iSQt6fyRmESHP6PBjS 8XkAn2CWIOgYwzXwA4okok713yvMPD5x =qfoO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --gKMricLos+KVdGMg--
