The setting sun

The setting sun

[Jerry DeLisle]

Hi all,

If I recall correctly I submitted my first patch to gfortran in 2005.

So I have had about a 13 year run on this endeavor. I have no regrets at 
all of course, but there comes a time when one recognizes when it is 
time to let go and let others continue on.

I very much enjoyed working with everyone all these years.

I want to especially thank those who have helped me to learn new things 
and resolve issues as they popped up. I may occasionally be able to 
review a patch here and there if it makes sense to me to do so and I 
will keep this list on my active status.  I will not be monitoring the 
bug list or patches lists directly any more.  Feel free to cc me if you 
think I may know something about a problem.

Once again, thanks to all!

Best regards,

Jerry

Sad to see you leave, though I never had the opportunity to meet you in
person.  Anyway, thank you for all you work over the years!

Hi Jerry,

This is sad news. I sincerely hope that it is false news; very false....

If not, then I can only echo the thanks from the others and wish you
well with whatever you are going to do now.

Regards

Paul

Hi Jerry,

while I only had the pleasure of working with you for a short time, it has always been great :) 

I wish you all the best on your future endeavours and thanks for your work on gfortran.

P.S.: I think everyone would be very happy to welcome you back if you ever decide to return.
