Jacques,
It has been a pleasure to be around and involved in the development of 
Bering. You inspired a proof-of-concept into reality and extended the
capabilities where few were inclined to believe may have been possible.
Getting a fully working 2.4 kernel OS onto a floppy was the first step, but
what I found more intriguing was the amount of hardware and protocol
variations that became usable within the framework of Bering. Where most
developers tend to get more specilized in a project, you extended the
boundries That is the inspiration that inspired LEAF and one that I hope
continues as time passes on! The documentation that has been provided
with Bering sets a de facto standard that I can only hope continues on as
well. (Which reminds me I've still got some FAQ's to update :)

Best of Wishes dear friend!

Jacques;

it has been a pleasure to work with you. 
You did a really great job breaking through the 2.4 kernel barrier with 
Bering.
The docs you provided are the most comprehensive doc's for LEAF usage.

And Bering-uClibc would never happened without your work and help.

Thank you.

Jacques,
Thank you for all of your time and effort. The new 2.4 kernel versions,
Shorewall integration, documentation guides, team building, etc. were
all a direct result of your involvement. The LEAF community is in your
debt.

Best of luck with all your future endeavors. Remember we're always here
if you decide to dive back in. :-)

Thanks Jacques for your fine work and dedication. You will be missed,
but I perfectly understand the demands of running a project such as
Bering and the need to eventually step away.

Best wishes,
-Tom

[leaf-devel] Bering: time to hand on the torch ...

2003-12-08 Thread Jacques Nilo
Dear folks
After quite some years spent working on LEAF, most of them dedicated to the 
"Bering" variant, I realise that the time I can spend on the project is 
diminishing every day. I have therefore decided to follow one of the many 
good principle from Eric Raymond's seminal paper (The cathedral and the 
Bazaar):

"When you lose interest in a program, your last duty to it is to hand it off 
to a competent successor."

Eric Wolzak, my Bering fellow from the begining in this project, will from 
now on take over the responsability of pursuing the Bering project on his own.

I am sure they are now many knowledgeable people around who will bring fresh 
ideas and energy. And the doc is still around :-)

It has been a real pleasure to work with such a nice community

Long life to the LEAF project !

Cheers

Jacques
