\r
59 I've been away from any active involvement in the notmuch community for
\r
62 It turns out that even with an email system as sophisticated as notmuch,
\r
63 it's possible to slip into bad habits that allow one to get behind with
\r
64 email. So I got behind.
\r
66 I also had some difficulty in accepting the fact that I wasn't able to
\r
67 be as directly involved with notmuch as I was in the beginning. Early on
\r
68 I would read every message sent to the list and try to ensure that every
\r
69 question received at least some answer, (whether from me or for someone
\r
70 else). But of course, I never succeeded at actually keeping up with
\r
71 that, so my queues kept getting bigger and more intimidating, etc.
\r
73 Anyway, it's been about 18 months since I've done anything real with
\r
74 notmuch. I'm so delighted to see that the community that built up around
\r
75 notmuch has been so independent, doing great things in my absence. I'm
\r
76 excited to start looking close at the new features that I've not played
\r
77 with (nmbug, date parsing, etc.), and maybe start implementing some of
\r
78 those ancient features that I never got around to implementing in the
\r
79 first place, (indexing of List-Id headers?).
\r
81 So a huge thank you to all of you!
\r
83 When I got over the psychological hurdles and decided to just archive
\r
84 away the old, neglected mail queues, notmuch at least did make that
\r
85 really easy. And I've now got an email workflow going really well for
\r
86 me, that I think will be really useful. Notmuch allows the workflow
\r
87 quite well, but doesn't guide me through it as smoothly as I would
\r
88 like. More on that in a later message.
\r
90 But for now, I should be reading the list much more regularly going
\r
91 forward, and I'll be happy to have people CC me directly when they want
\r
92 my particular attention for some specific reason.
\r
94 And of course, all of the 12,000+ [*] messages I missed in the last
\r
95 18 months[*] are still present in my archives. So new replies to old
\r
96 messages might bring things to my attention. People can use that
\r
97 intentionally if it will be useful.
\r
99 I don't know how much code I'll be committing on a regular basis. But I
\r
100 will definitely be "around" now much more.
\r
102 Thanks again for all you've done over the last while. And thanks in
\r
103 advance for what I know will be a warm welcome.
\r
107 [*] Hurrah for date searches! It's wonderful to have this feature!!
