Hi Eric,

Sometimes, when you single handedly change the world, it's not easy to let go. The burden, when so many depend on you, can feel heavy.

So, I want you to know that you don't owe anybody. We owe you. So I want to say, ----thank you----. Thanks for making my job, as a teacher, much more fun and interesting. I have learned so much over the past 4 years.

Fedora also has a lot to thank you for. K12LTSP has a wonderful community. I know you must be helping them, as you have helped other LTSP distros, get off the ground.

I want to share a little philosophical commentary. In the business world, it is a common belief "What makes others weaker, makes us stronger" but in the FOSS world "What makes others stronger, makes us stronger".

I don't want people to think you are quitting. I don't think you are. But rather, Eric's work of late has been to set the stage for a new era of K12LTSP. One that is not, a one man show. That's a good thing for everyone, including Eric.
