It has already been on the horizon for quite a while (years actually), but the time has now finally come for me to say goodbye. It's of course not without a heavy heart, as I've been part of the project for such a long time (since November 2011 IIRC), but I have reached a point where I can't really continue to participate in a meaningful way.
There are various reasons for this, all of them RL related, and don't have anything to do with the FreeOrion project (other than that I can't get my motivation for FO back).
As most of you (at least those who have been around long enough) have surely noticed, my contributions have been dwindling for years now. Mostly because these last years have been stressful (in more than one way), my job has been keeping throwing things at me, but also because my interests have been shifting towards other things, other projects I want to try, and there is only so much past time one has available for their various hobbies.
I wish you guys all the best, and I hope you'll be able to continue with this quite unique project. Seeing FreeOrion 1.0 one day would really be something.![:D]( "Very Happy")
I did enjoy this ride, it has been a very nice and interesting experience.
I do not intend to vanish completely off the radar, meaning, I'll still respond to PM (unless I loose access to my account here by some unfortunate accident, but that's not very likely![;)]( "Wink")
). So you'll be able to contact me. Also, I might get nostalgic from time time, and maybe pay a visit now and then.
And I'm not gone quite yet, as I still have to get the release out. So you're stuck with me for at least a little while still.![;)]( "Wink")
