Thanks for remembering me! But I haven't been active for the past two
years or so. I requested retirement last February (bug #175274), but
it hasn't been processed yet.

May I take the opportunity to request that finally gets done? I still
get lots of mail from Gentoo, but I really am not seeing myself
return. I would log in and remove myself from various email aliases,
but I would have to go through the process of updating my keys
first...

Also, seeing bugs and packages still assigned to me four months after
I requested retirement, is not exactly an encouraging sign for the
state of Gentoo.

And if anyone is curious as to the reasons why I left, it is mostly
because my interests shifted. I'm spending my free time now mostly on
making music, which is just so much more convenient on Windows than it
is on Linux. https://soundcloud.com/ablauto if anyone is interested...

Thank you all for the good times I had in Gentoo, especially Patrick
Lauer, Steve Dibb, and the members of the Qt team. I wish you well in
your endeavors!
