I'm very sad to see you leave Clive and hope that you can find the fun that
you once had when working with us in the community. I fully understand the
reasons and respect them, As I've replied before taking a break before
being fully burned out is the best decision to make when working on a
project. Hopefully things will balance out in your life and our internal
issues as well. Please do come to us if you need to talk anytime.
