Thank you MAU für your help a long time ago when i got into The Bat!

See you surprisingly in Spain, if it might happen.

Dear MAU,

It is really sad and I hope that one day you decide to come back looking where 
this thing is going.

It was a great pleasure to get help from you and to communicate with you on 
numerous TB! lists through all these years.

And I owe you a lot of beers! And guys from Ritlabs do. And I sincerely hope 
one day I will pay at least some of our debt ;-)

Take care, Miguel, I wish you all the best. And please do keep an eye on this 
list as I hope we will deliver some interesting stuff soon!

Good luck!

I also think about to leave The Bat! behind me. In the past I tested
more or less regularly the latest version of TheBat! on wine to let a
bat fly in the land of penguins.

There is a native mail program "KMail" which got better and better and
also has a macro based language inside. It is part of KDE and well
integrated into it.

So: end of the story about TheBat!@wine.
Good luck to you all!

Bye bye!

Re: V10 beta: It is time for me to step aside

[Gunivortus Goos]

Hello all,

after having slept about it, admittedly heavy hearted, I decided to
follow MAU and will also stop beta testing of the new major version
10 of the Bat!
I'll stick to 9.5.1 as long as possible.

Generally, I feel too old and too tired to dive deep enough in new functions
of v10, functions, which I may not need at all myself. My 9 version already has
much more options than I need, many of them I hardly or never used.

I really hope, the Bat will have increasing success with the new developments
and wish the Ritlanbs Team and all people of this list a great time with this 
astonishing email client.

For me, 75 y/o is getting quite near and, indeed, personally, I've had that
same thought, but are still in doubt. I've been so long 'in a close relation' 
with the
Bat and then it isn't easy to make a cut.

 Since my retirement my activity as an author of popular scientific books has 
increased which has kept email traffic quite steady, but, indeed, the huge mail 
traffic
has decreased strongly. That is also due to the case, that in the late nineties 
and the
early 200s I was subscribed to many mailing lists, even more as I am today a 
member
of Facebook groups.
 
> SO LONG MY FRIENDS! IT HAS BEEN A PLEASURE! AND PLEASE TAKE CARE!
I will miss you Miguel, I still vividly remember all the promises to spend you 
a beer
after you had helped someone out here with a fine solution.
 
Wish you many fine years in your retirement!

V10 beta: It is time for me to step aside

Yes, twenty full  years of enthusiastic support of The Bat! project, 
and devoting more or less time, depending on circumstances, to finding 
bugs and "polishing" the many beta versions that were released during this 
long period. I love TB, no doubt about that

But I am getting old (and you all are too ;), and I am not ready nor 
willing to commit to participating as a beta tester of a new major 
version, V10. 

Since I retired 15 years ago, my email traffic has been constantly 
decreasing. And what I get now, I can very well manage with the last 
released version, v9.5.1, and I don't want to get involved with 6 HTTP 
connections, et all, either.

It has been a pleasure sharing with you this experience of beta 
testing The Bat! along these years. But things must come to an end, 
and I think this is the right moment to do so.

I will keep monitoring this list for some time, just for the heck of 
it, but I don't intend to participate at all. So..

SO LONG MY FRIENDS! IT HAS BEEN A PLEASURE! AND PLEASE TAKE CARE!

Cheers,
MAU (Aka Miguel A. Urech)
