Hi everyone, Over the past few months you may have noticed that I have been rather absent from my duties as the project leader. Unfortunately due to a lot of things cropping up I just haven't been able to give this project as much time as it deserves, and I'd rather step down as the leader and assume a more casual role than pretend to occupy a position with responsibilities I cannot fulfill.
It's very painful having to write this message only a year after I founded the project, especially considering the amazing progress we have made in such a short time and the good people I have met and worked with. It is even harder having to do so when many predicted the team wouldn't last long. Unfortunately my priorities have changed a lot since the start of this year and I no longer have the time required to lead the project properly. I hope that this doesn't adversely affect the team but rather breaks through a wall that we have been stuck behind since June. The best possible outcome would be for a new leader to take the reigns, with proper motivation, fresh ideas and enough time to control the project towards more of the same success we have had in the past. >From our statistics it appears that people want a manual, even if we need to refine our distribution method and content a little to suit the changing needs of the user. The need for a proper replacement to help.ubuntu.com certainly still exists and I think USLC is still the best candidate; I believe if there is any team that would be able to make it a reality it would be this team. Of course I will remain involved with the project and do what I can in my role as a writer for OMG! Ubuntu! to help bring new people to the team and keep it running. I'm also happy to continue helping Adnane with the website design if I have any time available. It has been a fantastic experience working with everyone, and I have learnt a lot. I hope that we can continue to collaborate on many projects in the future!
