I'm sorry for having contributed to your burnout. I have a lot of respect for you personally Michał, the quality of your contributions to Gentoo are outstanding, and have to admit I've often felt a little worried for you with the amount of work you do. I don't know you at all, I hope you don't mind me saying that. Don't worry I think it's quite unlikely I'll bring any new concerns to this list again in future, I'll certainly think twice about it. regards, Eddie
