I don't wanna say "thanks for all the goid things you've done into the
project", I just wanna say "thanks for all the good things I'll do for any
linux distro".
I always read your post with interest and I hope to see you somewhere in the net.
See you.

I've got invitation of participation from OpenSuse,Arch, Korora, Mageia welcoming
with open arm and promise of less bureaucracy and more leverage doing what needs to be as
well as ears willing to listen to my ideas and make them happen so I guess contributors
like me are hot on the market and I must have done something right all those years but and
after constantly swimming against the Red Hat current ( the latest being the timer
migration ) and the sacrifices I have made for the project my energy is quite spent so
honestly I'm not so sure I will ever contribute to FOSS in general ever again.
I literally put my heart and sole into Fedora all those years and I have learned the hard
way what happens when you do and which rewards you get in the process so I'm going to
take my time re-charging my battery and most likely digg deeper into the works of American
theoretical physicist named David Bohm and René Descartes which I accidentally came across
when figuring out the mathematical solution how we could re-trace an component within one
product on a one release cycle tied to a re-basable coreOS platform ( as in to which
release it belong to ) and that re-base being tied to the kernel release cycle ( took me
about a week to figure the solution for that ) as well as how we could calculate/keep tab
on multiple product doing this simultaneously ( took me four weeks until I the solution
for that hit me ) which are one of those things you need to figure out when delivering
multiple products ( it's going to be interesting to see what solution those driving
the .next and wg effort plan on coming up with solving those problems ).
One thing I would like to do in the long run if an urge to scratch an itch reappears is
getting out of my head and on a piece of paper the ideas for community improvements I have
and have gather with all my years of involvement and experience I gained in Fedora with my
community involvement and felt Fedora has needed all those years, many of which are
problems that can be applied to other distributions and their community and in the end
would benefit the linux ecosystem in whole.
My brief introduction to what I had in mind with individuals with various distribution as
well upstream projects, got positive responses and request for more outlined and
formalized form of an proposal so they could introduce it to their communities.
If and then when I finished that it wont go unnoticed since it will eventually land
itself on the frontpage of lwn due the scale in the changes how we do and run things as
communities and the required joint effort ( with the exception of participation from
Fedora since I know for fact now that it wont work, one of those things Fedora could have
lead and put an actual meaning back into first in our foundation) achieving that
regardless if you are a distribution or an upstream project.
As we vikings say I have a lot of iron's heating in the forge, Time will tell which
ones I pull out and start shaping and what comes out of it when I do.
