But now it's time to pass that torch on to somebody else. > As to the people who emailed me that they are putting together a > petition for the DAM to have me removed from the project, I hear you > too.

I think any suggestion of an expulsion is utterly absurd. I hope that you will carry on with your work in other parts of Debian where you have made valuable contributions over the years, but of course that's your decision to make. Go, take some time off in peace and work out what you want to do in future. -- Steve McIntyre, Debian Project Leader <leader@debian.org>
