Hi all, Short version: I am leaving from fedora to archlinux. Long version: I really want to thank ALL of the fedora community, which was more than friends. You have been in fact great teachers for me, when I started to contribute the 19/11/2012 (I was 14). You showed me not only how to contribute, but also how to work efficiently with opensource projects. I want to thank especially the entire french team who helped me being an ambassador and teach me many things (not to name the main ones: Emmanuel Seyman and Jean-Baptiste Holcroft). I am not leaving "brutally". I will continue to maintain my packages as long as possible and obviously accept any new mainteners [1]. For now, I will only step back of my activities, no take in charge any new work but finish the ones I started. I will resign of my ambassador role soon. My reasons are diverse. I like the KISS of archlinux, their great documentation and their philosophy in general. Rolling releases and AUR seems more than great to me, alongside the governance model (I don't like the fedora one, with many instances , groups, leaders...). But, I won't deny it, I want to learn how my system really works and to "get my hands dirty", to learn things that fedora "kept away" of me. BUT: I think that Fedora and Archlinux are two great distros, and I will keep recommend fedora to new users and advanced users who want a system with many packages and features, without getting their hands too dirty in administration. Please keep doing what you are doing. It REALLY matters: help, encourage and teach new users. Freedom, First, Features, Friends, always. Regards, Alexandre [1]: I maintain, in officials fedora repositories: * adonthell -- A 2D graphical RPG game ( master f26 f25 f24 ) * amsynth -- A classic synthesizer with dual oscillators ( master f26 f25 f24 ) * hyperrogue -- An SDL roguelike in a non-euclidean world ( master f26 f25 f24 ) * opencity -- Full 3D city simulator game project ( master f26 f25 f24 ) * rogue -- The original graphical adventure game ( master f26 f25 f24 ) * tinyxpath -- Small XPath syntax decoder ( master f26 f25 f24 ) * wastesedge -- Official game package for Adonthell ( master f26 f25 f24 ) In rpmfusion (free): * openmw -- Unofficial open source engine re-implementation of the game Morrowind ( master f26 f25 f24 ) Feel free to ask for ownership.
