Re: Leaving the list

[Jim Hodapp <james hodapp gmail com>]

Sumana,

    We are sorry to see you go but am impressed by your ability to prioritize and say no to the things you can no longer commit to. I've had to learn to do that as well over the last few years and in many ways will always be learning how to do that better. Good luck in your work and travel and please feel free to help out any time in the future when you feel like you want to.

Jim
