[ubuntu-art] Goodbye

[Thorsten Wilms]

Hi!

I actually considered to drop out silently, but after a scary amount of 
years and of sometimes playing a  bit of a role, people might assume I'd 
still be here.

There's not much a of a reason left for this "team", not much, if 
anything, to actually collaborate on. The current round of wallpapers 
was a ray of hope and might even lead to good results, but is rather a 
disaster regarding management and communication.

Regarding the team logo: we have no briefing for the logo, no real 
criteria, no decision making process and I still regret that I didn't 
bring these issues up immediately when the idea was brought up. What 
good could a poll do? Remember that a reason for the delay was that Vish 
pointed out that I would be good to have the results from Ivanka's 
survey. Still waiting.

Our combined inability or unwillingness to deal with repeated 
misrepresentations and incredible ignorance from one member pisses me 
off to no end and spoils the last bit of fun.

As I can't afford to invest in making things better, can't stand it as 
it is, so I have to take a break of indefinite length.

I might still do some Ubuntu artwork and design and will likely hang 
around in #ubuntu-artwork. My mailbox is open, especially concerning the 
Xubuntu and Edubuntu wallpapers.

My deep respect to Vish, Saleel and Sergey, who kept me here a bit longer.

Now I will immediately unsubscribe and leave the team.
