If he did not warn us he would be MIA (all it takes is a message to -devel, -private, or asking someone in irc to send said email), and he has not a damn good excuse (being in the hospital nearly dying is a good one for not notifying anyone, for example), he deserves to go through the pains of nm.debian.org to learn to be more considerate of others. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
