Most of you don't know me and/or couldn't care less if I dropped off the lists but I hate to leave without saying goodbye so I'm writing this thorougly unnecessary note for my own sense of closure.
I've been following all the activity around here since January (and there's been a lot!). I've learned a great deal from you all about the social dynamics of open-source communities, the design of large software applications, and the finer points of Java programming. I'm grateful for all the that, as well as the few opportunities I had to give back to the community. The good news is that I recently got a job I really enjoy. The bad news is that it doesn't look like Cocoon will be a part of it (at least in the near term--but I'll keep plugging it!). These are pretty active lists and I can't afford to keep up anymore. So I'm going to bow out as gracefully as I can--hopefully I'll make it back some day (I'm sure I'll be peeking in occasionally). Thanks, all, it's been a real pleasure... Best of luck! Jeff Ramsdale
