Re: New challenge

["Scott Reeves" <sreeves suse com>]

Another voice of thanks for the work you have done. The passion and enthusiasm you brought to the advisory 
board meetings and the foundation in general was appreciated. Sad to see you "leave" but look forward to 
seeing you still heavily involved in the GNOME world and Software Freedom.

Scott.
