Re: [Pharo-users] [ANN] I stop maintaining the Ubuntu packages
Sad news. I switched from OSX to Ubuntu and i also plan to switch from Win8 to Ubuntu. I really hope "Pharo" will find a new maintainer for the most popular Linux Distribution.

[Pharo-users] [ANN] I stop maintaining the Ubuntu packages
Dear all, I've recently switched my Linux distribution from Ubuntu to NixOS. This means I can no longer maintain the Ubuntu packages and their PPA (https://launchpad.net/~pharo/). These packages need a maintainer! The good side of it is that it is not a lot of work as I did all the automating infrastructure: https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-ubuntu. Basically, the maintainer will have to launch a few shell scripts regularly (once a month for example). I will obviously be available to help the new maintainer. The community needs *you*.
