FYI: David K. will be leaving the RIPE NCC

David,

Congratulations and welcome to the US ;-)

I think you did a great job maintaining the RIPE DB software mess that
Tony and I left you with....

 * Dear all,
 * 
 * After working for nearly 2 years at the RIPE NCC, I feel it is time for a
 * change. I have found a new job at ISI (Los Angeles) where I will be
 * involved with the RA project. I will leave the RIPE NCC at the end of July.
 * 
 * As for the RIPE database:
 * 
 * We currently plan to bring out the long expected 2.00 release version as
 * soon as possible to keep some time left while I am still at the RIPE NCC in
 * case problems arise. You can soon expect a message from me at the database
 * working group maillist with all the open proposals (as promised during
 * the last RIPE meeting). 
 * 
 * I would like to thank the RIPE community for their support of and input
 * on my development work on the RIPE database and the reverse delegation
 * tool. I hope that I will be able to collaborate as productively with you
 * in my new job as we have in the past.
 * 
 * Kind regards,
 * 
 * David K.
