<div class="PlainText">Hi all,<br>
<br>
I think it's time for me to officially step down from Patchwork maintainership.<br>
<br>
I've been in a new job for 3 months now, and this company doesn't use<br>
mailing lists for development. So I'm no longer using Patchwork as a<br>
patch submitter, and the low volume of patches to the Patchwork mailing<br>
list meant I never used it very much as a maintainer either. I think<br>
that someone who doesn't use a piece of software probably shouldn't be a<br>
maintainer of that software. So, with some sadness, it's time for me to<br>
relinquish the role.<br>
<br>
Additionally, the change in job means I no longer have any excuses to<br>
use work time for Patchwork, and my free time continues to be very<br>
limited. I think it's better for everyone if I don't stay in a role that<br>
I'm not meaningfully able to keep up with.<br>
<br>
I'll do my best to reply to Patchwork mail where I'm personally listed<br>
in the To:, but I'm probably going to (continue to) be pretty bad at<br>
responding to mail to the list generally. I'm happy to keep my commit<br>
bit for as long as Stephen and any future maintainers deem appropriate.<br>
<br>
Stephen, thanks for inviting me to the maintainership and for the trust<br>
you've placed in me. I wish you all the best for the future of<br>
Patchwork!<br>
<br>
To our long-suffering Patchwork administrators at kernel.org and<br>
ozlabs.org, and to the smaller ones around the web - thank you for<br>
trusting us and apologies for the regular migration dramas! Thanks<br>
especially to jk for kicking off the patchwork project. Finally, to all<br>
our contributors: thank you, you have in a very real way made Patchwork<br>
what it is today.<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
Daniel<br>
