Subject: Stepping down as a Patchwork maintainer
Message-ID: <87pmirfvg4.fsf@dja-thinkpad.axtens.net>

Hi all,

I think it's time for me to officially step down from Patchwork maintainership.

I've been in a new job for 3 months now, and this company doesn't use
mailing lists for development. So I'm no longer using Patchwork as a
patch submitter, and the low volume of patches to the Patchwork mailing
list meant I never used it very much as a maintainer either. I think
that someone who doesn't use a piece of software probably shouldn't be a
maintainer of that software. So, with some sadness, it's time for me to
relinquish the role.

Additionally, the change in job means I no longer have any excuses to
use work time for Patchwork, and my free time continues to be very
limited. I think it's better for everyone if I don't stay in a role that
I'm not meaningfully able to keep up with.

I'll do my best to reply to Patchwork mail where I'm personally listed
in the To:, but I'm probably going to (continue to) be pretty bad at
responding to mail to the list generally. I'm happy to keep my commit
bit for as long as Stephen and any future maintainers deem appropriate.

Stephen, thanks for inviting me to the maintainership and for the trust
you've placed in me. I wish you all the best for the future of
Patchwork!

To our long-suffering Patchwork administrators at kernel.org and
ozlabs.org, and to the smaller ones around the web - thank you for
trusting us and apologies for the regular migration dramas! Thanks
especially to jk for kicking off the patchwork project. Finally, to all
our contributors: thank you, you have in a very real way made Patchwork
what it is today.

Kind regards,
Daniel

I?m sure that you will be missed.  Me personally, I have only been tortured by those using your work.  Please- whoever you pick as a replacement- think of the harm your code can do.
