I am, after a long trip from kanotix to sidux to aptosid, leaving the team. suitcases been open since the switch from sidux to aptosid.
i was hoping for some things to change. it didnt happen. my work over the years was allways for the user. i realised that i was often alone with that approach. besides that, i had ongoing, personal and professional problems with one team member. i hope, my going away will bring more peace and quiet.

i will move on, but will follow the forums and IRC (as user) at least for now. i will move on towards debian as well.

i wish aptosid a future.

happy trails
devil

Sad to hear about that! I hoped, it would not come so far, but somehow, i was expecting it in some way.
I wish you all the best and want to thank you for your work here over the years.

Ooops! That's a sad surprise!

devil, I want to say a big thank you for everything you did in the last years, esp. that you encouraged me to join the manual team. That was 2007 January 01 Smile

I'm sure you'll be a shining star wherever you go! All the best to you!

I'll miss you,
hubi

I always considered you to be the best liaison between the users and developers, and as such, you were one of aptosid's biggest assets.

For many years users have seen you tirelessly work these boards and irc, and many, many were helped by your efforts. Your work on conferences and your outreach to debian to harmonize it's hostility to sidux/aptosid were obvious to anyone lurking on irc or reading parts of the website besides the forums. All this apart from any work building and testing ISOs for release.

aptosid is a worse entity without you on the team, and it's unsettling and a bit alarming that differences could not be worked out for the better of all; users and team.

Really sad.

Devil, I want to thank you for all your help. You have been one of the best "advisers" I ever had the pleasure to meet.(online). I wish you well in your future and thanks a million for all you've done.

Sorry to hear you are leaving the team..your wisdom and depth of knowledge of things Debian is a great asset. Hope you'll consider making more contributions to Debian from the outside and continuing to help users

Good luck and God bless in your future endeavors!

devil, I want to personally say Thank You for all the help and teachings thru the years, (knoppix or kanotix we met) you have been a very good friend and mentor thru those years. Hard to imagine aptosid with no devil.

Good luck in everything you do

Devil; thank you for your efforts. It is hard to see how this can be a positive. Good luck!

A sad loss for Aptosid, you have always posted with timely good helpful advice on Kanotix,Sidux and Aptosid forums. Good luck.

Hey Man....?
What a bad surprise. I am really sad to hear that - and I am also sad to hear that a personal querel caused your decission.
Isn't there any way for you to stay and to find a way to avoid the mentioned person?

I am sad about this, since you have always been a relieble voice in the entire forum & IRC.

If you don't change your mind, i wish you all the best and of courde "live long and prosper" Smile
