Congratulations, Brecht, I'm really happy for you. Over the last few years you've put in a more-than-enormous amount of effort and also shouldered a huge amount of responsibility too - you deserve everyone's best wishes, appreciation and much respect! I'm looking forward to seeing all the amazing stuff you'll continue to create and I hope we'll cross paths in the future.
Congrats to Campbell too! cheers, Matt On 05/08/2010, at 23:09 , Ton Roosendaal wrote: > Hi all, > > After three years of more than excellent services at Blender > Institute, Brecht has decided to move on with his career and accept > per september a position as software architect at Refractive Software > in Belgium, which is close to where he lives.
