I know this is unusal and rather sudden, sudden for me also as Kai
suggested to me this morning. I understand my contributions have been more
focused on Bodhi and less on e and efl development. But as Bodhi relies on
EFL and while it currently uses a fork of e17 (with e21 in our testing
repos) I have been devoting more time to learning EFL development will be
looking to contribute more to EFL and E development. Aside from reporting
issues to a couple of e-devs personally the only patch i have suggested is
https://phab.enlightenment.org/T5098. I noticed that issue updating Bodhis
forecast module to the new yahoo API, which latter a very similar patch to
the forecast module was made to the forecast module in e git.

On a personal note, i am a 57 year old brick mason with two degrees one in
CS and one in mathematics. Being a mason that codes makes me somewhat of an
oddity in both the construction world and in the open source communinity.
My favorite language these days is python altho I coded exclusively in C
for over a decade in the ms-dos days ... showing my age there. However I am
getting a bit old to work as hard as I do in masonry and have only been
working part time lately as a result. I would like to spend my time doing
more programming and contributing to the projects I use as well as putting
more code on github and fixing and improving some of Bodhis code.
