I certainly hope that you find your new position with a for profit corporation as stimulating and useful to society as the position that you are leaving -- the for-profit world is very different from the academic (except perhaps for that of the Rubbia-like worlds in nominally academic fields).

One small question: is there anyone else who knows the same material with respect to SL that you do? That is, with you totally divorcing yourself from SL, have you built in programmer job security that will take a large amount of effort on the part of the remaining SL support team to re-invent?

Best wishes on your new career.

You still going to remain part of the mailing list? ;)


I know you put a ;) after that, but I am still going to answer it.
The answer is no. Scientific Linux has been such a part of my life for
so long that I need to have a clean cut to separate myself from it. That
is the only way it would be fair to my new employer.
That would be true whoever my new employer is.
It is possible that sometime in the future I might join the SL lists
again and answer a question or two. But for now, I will not be on any SL
mailing lists after September 2.

Thanks to everyone
Troy
