I'm ok with that, I'm also happy to stay involved at a distance. I do
read emails and try and help where I can :). I'm just not doing day to
day rebuilds of cutting edge kernels so the patch work isn't something
I've been able to find time for and the Yocto Project is where my main
focus appears best placed at the moment.

Cheers,

Richard
