As much as I would like to continue, it has become clear that I just don't have the cycles needed to directly contribute to the Fedora Server at this time. I hereby resign from the Server WG.
That said, I *will* still try to contribute where time allows, but I don't want anything waiting on me.

This is very unfortunate and very disadvantageous for a reboot of the Server Working Group.
Couldn't you postpone your resignation until a new formation is established? Or even better, what would need to be done to keep you contributing to Fedora Server *and* retain membership in the Server WG? Can we find someone to take over something from you, so that fewer "cycles" are needed? I think so far there has been no "anything waiting on me", quite the opposite.

I don't believe that is a fair ask. When someone is overloaded you're asking them to continue to be overloaded. Basically asking them to continue to keep drowning. Ultimately if the Server WG is going to be successful it needs to be able to do so on it's own steam.
I'm sure Stephen will happily be around to answer questions if and when it's necessary. I suspect all the answers will be in the list archives or the meeting notes TBH.

Sorry if that came across as unfair. The point was to find out whether there is also an alternative solution that equally prevents said „drowning“ and overload. And acknowledges at the same time his many years of high and successful commitment.
Nothing unfair about it.

Yes, I'll be around and I'll try to participate as time allows, but my primary focus these days is on the Fedora->ELN->RHEL pipeline. There's a lot of overlap with Fedora Server, so I'll certainly still be involved, but I just cannot commit to the level of involvement that WG membership would require.
