Dear Maemo community,

I will leave Nokia in a couple of weeks. With this, I will also leave my official and unofficial responsibilities in maemo.org. The main reason is that I'm getting a new job in a new area (for me) that will require plenty of learning and extra time: the Wikimedia community. More details here:

Moving up in the freedom stack
http://flors.wordpress.com/2012/08/2...freedom-stack/

I will connect the council with the right people in charge of the maemo.org hosting and the distribution of devices. As far as I know these are the only areas where Nokia and myself have still some items open.

I also want to advance here my Big Thank You to this community. I have learned a lot with you and I have enjoyed the fun in the good times, and also in the other ones. When I joined Nokia my goal was to convert the official maemo.org site in an authentic community made of passionate contributors. We've got our ups and downs but I believe the core mission has been accomplished.

My nokia.com address will still work during a couple of weeks. I'm subscribing to this thread and you can use it to reach me out even after that. In any case it's easy to find me.

Qgil thanks for all your help over the past few years at this site [even though unofficially you won't be around I'm sure the pull of this community will always bring you back]...

Unfortunately, s*** has happened and we lose yet another valuable member of the community...

However, we stay strong and this community will not go off easily...

Congratulations for your new job. You deserved to work in a company where openness and freedom is a must instead of a curse.

I really hope we will see you here, now as part of the community and a very valuable contributor.

Big thanks Quim for all you did for this community. It's a big loss for us, but no doubt an inevitable outcome after June incident.

Hopefully fun times ahead for you in the new job - it is at least a great and important place to be for fans of free information.

Quim thank-you for the *huge amount* you've done over the years.
I hope the new community entity currently being built, can somehow work with Wikimedia in a mutually beneficial manner in the future!
More importantly I wish you absolute happiness & fulfilment in life!
