Sad to hear. It sounds like you won't be able to (or maybe don't want to, 
understandable), but will you be able to make any of your work toward 0.9 
or its integration with Flatiron available anywhere? Were you planning to 
give ownership of the npm hook.io package, google group or github repo to 
anyone? I'll be forking, though it'd be nice if you planned to shut it all 
down to possibly hand these over (esp the github Issues).

Either way, best of luck in the future.

Cheers,
Adam
