Collogue

Today I’m leaving Red Hat. As you can imagine that means I’m no more employed to work on OLPC/Sugar.

Something similar happened temporarily several months ago and I was so sad and scared for Sugar future. I’m happy to report that this time I’m totally happy, excited and confident about being back to be a volounteer. This is the result of the progress Sugar made as a community, we are now walking alone and we don’t need a company or a person to drive development.

I know, it’s a bit of a mess and there is way too much to do. But we did the huge step from a company driven project to a community one. That’s what really matters, only very few projects are able to make it. It will take two years or twenty, I don’t know, but now we are unstoppable and we will get where we want to be. The list of people that made this possible is way too long but… you know who you are and I want you to know that I’m grateful and proud about what each of you achieved.

So I’m a volounteer now and I will be able to throw all of my passion into the project again. I’ve been thinking and having conversations about the best way for me to contribute from now on. I’ll keep doing it and any feedback will be appreciated and valuable. In general, if you need help with anything just let me know!
