| Farewell |
Greetings humans (and any others that lurk among the gluggers), This is just a short, offtopic (don't worry, it's my last) note to say farewell to all of you. I'm unsubbing from the glug list today, and I wanted everyone on the list to how much you've all meant to me over the past 3 years. This list brought me from the stage where I couldn't get a Linux box up and running to where I haven't used a windows box in 3 months, and I'm a well paid sysadmin for a good company. It got me a job at the best company I ever worked for (Datrix) and it made me some friends I never would have met otherwise. The people on this list were there for me always, no matter how trivial the question, or how dumb the answer I gave to someone else's question. Without this list, I'd probably be an MSCE by now :-) I'm a happier hacker thanks to Linux! I'm bailing out for a couple of reasons. 1 is time. I just don't have enough of it to contribute any more. I haven't for some time, but I've been selfishly hanging on and abusing you with questions. That's hardly fair. Another is that I'm not putting much back in to the SA Linux scene any more (being in London at the moment) and a lot of what happens through the list (meets, installfests, compfaire) make me very homesick. So having blubbered my last, I wish the group, and each and every member good luck, and happy hacking. Thanks for everything! More power to you through the Penguin ! -- Wayne Pascoe <wayne@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> I laugh in the face of danger... Then I run and hide until it goes away!
