Jean, I for one will greatly miss your knowledge and helpful hints when I work on hardware monitoring drivers. I hope you find success in all the things you do! I understand the difficult position you're in, and if there's any way I could convince you to stay, I would. Maybe you would be willing to answer a few low-bandwidth questions from time to time? Or jump on to #linux-sensors every once in a while? Either way, thanks for everything!
