[ddj] "That'll do, pig. That'll do."

[Isao Matsunami]

I do not know how to say in English, but I thank you very much for
your contribution to building DDJ community.
We will miss your flag-woman leadership.

> The reference in the subject line, see Babe, the Sheep pig! I had to use all
> of my restraint to stop myself using the Douglas Adams “So long and thanks
> for all the fish”, so I’ve gone for eclectic in a different way (watch the
> film, it’s great!).
>
> I’m writing to update you on my personal plans: after four years at Open
> Knowledge, I’ve decided it is time for me to explore new areas.
>
> As you can imagine, the decision was incredibly hard, as I have loved this
> job, particularly the people it has allowed me to work with and the projects
> it has allowed me to take on.
>
> I’m not normally particularly verbose on mailing lists, so I hope you’ll
> forgive me this one indulgence, as this organisation has been a very big
> part of my life for the last 4 years.
>
> When I started at Open Knowledge, you could count staff members on one hand.
> I’ve seen the organisation grow enormously, take on all kinds of new and
> exciting projects and I want to take a step back and think about what should
> follow next.
>
> I look back fondly to my first day in job, when I was introduced to the
> command line to do “computer brain surgery” having never seen one before. I
> have been immensely privileged to have a job which allowed me to do what I
> love: “tech translation” - helping to make data and technology less
> overwhelming to those starting out exploring it (hopefully less overwhelming
> than cold plunge introductions to command lines :P) .
>
> I leave the projects I have been working on in incredibly capable hands and
> I look forward to seeing them flourish. Keep up the awesome work in
> translating DDJBook - maybe on my death bed, we’ll have it in Esperanto!
>
> I am going to miss working with you all every day immensely, but I will of
> course stay an active community member, so I am not disappearing at all!
>
> Should you ever need me, “ping” me (another phrase I promised myself I would
> never use until I worked at Open Knowledge. It got me!) on lucy at fedia.net -
> my inbox is always open!
>
> This job will be a very hard act to follow in terms of dynamism, amazing
> people and totally weird online Christmas parties and I will take forward
> the fondest memories of everything I have learned here.
>
> Until we speak next time, may our paths cross many more times,
