Hi all.

No, it is not yet about me. Here is a mail Dave asked me to forward to
gimp-devel - he wrote it after he unsubscribed from the list and the
list is configured to members-only posting...

Dave, let me add that it was great to have you in the project, thanks
for the massive amount of good work you did. I hope that the very real
problems you mention will get resolved at some point.

Thanks for everything.
        Simon

Hi,

I'm resigning from the GIMP project.

I have come to terms with the fact that there will never be any code of
conduct in this community, and I don't identify with that. For many
years, yosh has been imposing his very particular view of the community
on mailing lists, IRC and all other gimp.org resources, and I'm no
longer willing to put up with it. I don't foresee any resolution to the
problem in the near future.

This isn't a decision I'm taking lightly (although I am certainly angry) 
and it's something which I have been thinking about for quite a while.

I've already contacted Google to let them know that Sven will be the
point man for the gimp for all things SoC, and I would like to have my
name removed from the gimp@xxxxxxxxx alias as soon as possible. If
you're interested in dealing with our money and donors, contact Sven,
and we'll get you sorted out.

It has been a great few years with the GIMP project, as coder, release
manager and LGM/GIMPCon organiser. I wish the project the best, and hope
that you can get past the community problems that you have.

Cheers,
Dave.
