All views expressed on this site are my own. They do not necessarily reflect

can certainly expect them to be honest.
Have decided to retire usr-local-bin as a website & service this summer. Come
the autumn when I go to college, I'm not going to be able to afford either the
hosting for the site (on average it generates 2G of traffic per day, and
will require pushing 1G of disk space once I've got a full GNOME install, plus
all the apps built - and that will also increase the traffic), or the time it
takes up to maintain the packages. Depending on how things progress, I'll
release a couple of GNOME 2.7 package sets (2.7.2, 2.7.4, and maybe one of the
release candidates), and then retire it.
It's been a fantastic 2 1/2 years running the site, I've loved having
such a visible input into the community, and providing a service like this.
I'll stil lbe as active as my training allows, I'll bre reading lists, and
hopefully finding time to contribute patches, but in the words of my favorite
MUD,

Thanks to everyone who's supported the site over the years, hope you enjoy this
last hurrah over the summer.
