It's been awhile since I poked my head out to say hi, and now that I
have, it with an air of finality.
I plan to step down as leader of Arch Linux and pass the torch. The
reason for this is that I do not have the time to devote towards a
leadership role in a project the size of Arch Linux, and Arch deserves
someone who does. It needs some work, it needs some unification, and
it needs someone at the helm who can devote a lot of time to it.
This has been a very successful project, and I'd like to stay in it in
some facet, but not as the leader. Arch has met all my hopes and
goals from way back in 2001, and I think it's in a ripe position for
someone else to extend those goals and to map out a future for the
distribution.
I've given it a lot of thought, and based on the state of things,
all-round competencies, initiatives, and willingness, I would like to
pass this leadership role on to Aaron Griffin, also known as Phrakture
on IRC and the forums.
He's a good jack-of-all-trades and has the time necessary for a project
such as this. Please join me in welcoming him as our new Arch
Overlord.
Though I will still be around for discussions and anything else I can
do for Arch (within my feeble time constraints), I feel this is the
time to say Goodbye, at least as leader. I will still be around as
Arch's Number One Cheerleader, but not as its visionary.
To Developers and Community: Thank you so very very much. You've helped
build something that has changed my life in many ways and I look back
on the years with a fondness and admiration, still a bit incredulous at
all the talent that has formed around Arch Linux. We have much to be
proud of.
Thank you all for the last 6 years, and cheers to a bright future
together.
