This is just a short note on my blog that I have resigned from Arch Linux a package maintainer, developer and security team.
I’ve spent around 10 years as an AUR maintainer, security team, Package Maintainer and then Developer. I implemented support for debug packages, did the initial POC work that would become the git migration and even somehow managed to pull of an online conference during The Plague with the help of others.
Sad to see him go but what an impact he’s made over the last decade. Thanks, Morten!
Wonder what his reason to leave is. Gotta love the gossip.
Maybe the disaster that’s going on right now with the AUR as a whole? I can’t imagine it’d be a fun time to be an Arch dev right now…
