A big thank you for all your hard work and dedication to the project. Although I've never been a part of the official team, but I've maintained a bit of content on the wiki. I have to agree with you often about their lack of appreciation and communication at this level. I've often times posted ideas for new pages and content, often to be very quickly shot down. They seem to want things so locked down at their wiki level, that it's hard to post some things from time to time, to the point where I probably won't go back to post new things any longer.
I really hope that they are able to change this around. I've always enjoyed writing documentation for projects that I work with on CentOS, but their level of control is cumbersome.
I certain appreciate tight control when it comes to things, but when community members are trying to help and it becomes difficult, you'll find that control isn't always a good thing.
I certainly hope they can fix these issues in the future, because losing a valuable contributor like yourself is detrimental to the project.
Thanks again for all your work in the past to make CentOS a wonderful OS.
Thanks
