Apparently he found it exhausting that "so many people despise my decisions". Note the choice of words: 'despise', not 'disagree'. You can feel the sense of being under personal attack. He writes: So what are you all going to do? Create a democracy? Anarchy? A dictatorship? A federation? I'll still be here, but I'm trying to let you all figure something out for yourselves. I'm tired, and need a very long break. You can feel the stress he is under. He has spent years on Python, not only as a author but as the PRIMARY author. I have memories of writing a similar email. I do not envy him. As the saying goes, "You can tell the leader. He's the one with all the arrows in his back." I wish him peace. Tim
