I join to Thomas' thanks. As I said, Leo and this community has been an
important source of inspiration and I'm happy to be part of it since
near 2005 and despite not being much active now that I use other
languages (Pharo, Lua, Nim) Leo's mark continue in my way of thinking
documents and computing metasystems.

are very happy that you've stuck to it those 30 years! Thank you.

At 5 am this morning, I declared the last Leo issue to be
complete. I do not foresee significant changes to Leo in the
future. See below.
Today is an intensely happy/sad moment for me. Leo has been my
life for well over 30 years. I have no idea what I shall do next.
I have deliberately put off those considerations until now.
*Why stability matters*
Imo, Leo (the python app) is no longer the leading edge of the
Leonine world. That honor belongs to leoInteg
<https://github.com/boltex/leointeg>, a plugin for vs-code,
written by Félix Malboeuf. leoInteg communicates with Leo using
Leo's server, leoserver.py.
/Leo's stability doesn't matter much for leoInteg/. Leo's server
is flexible and could accommodate significant changes to Leo.
However, Félix is now working on leoJS
<https://github.com/boltex/leojs>, an all-Typescript plugin for
vs-code. leoJS promises significant performance improvements over
leoInteg. There is no need to wait for results from leoserver.py!
/Leo's stability matters very much for leoJS/. Félix is
transliterating (literally line by line) Leo's python code into
Typescript. It's a big job, but he is already well along. Changing
Leo's code base would make additional work for Félix.
*Summary*
Today is a milestone for Leo and for me. It's an intensely
happy/sad moment.
Imo, leoInteg and leoJS are now the leading edges of the Leonine
world. These two vs-code plugins offer all the advantages of
vs-code plus all of Leo's unique features.
I want to keep Leo's code stable so that Félix will not have to
revise his transliterated Typescript code.
