I'm sorry to see you stepping down. There are people out there like me
who appreciate the effort you put into keeping these updates going. I
remember the early days of this driver and how long it sometimes took.
Timing of these updates is quite good in my opinion given the work
needed to make it happen - 1 or 2 days is *much* better than some of the
earlier times when it sometimes could take a couple of weeks.

Best of luck! Whoever takes over for you will have some large shoes to
fill.

Cheers,

Chris
