Hi everyone!
First of all, I think Arch is the greatest Linux distribution ever. I'm leaving because I don't have as much free time as I thought I'd have while attending university.
I was thinking where I should put my goodbye thread, I thought this would be a nice place, because I'm about to leave some packages in the AUR orphaned:

That's weird, that's the exact reason I use Arch, I don't have to baby it. ;-)
Good luck with your studies, and welcome back in advance when you graduate. :-)

Yeah, sorry to see you go - I agree with Dusty though. I use arch because I don't have to muck with anything - it just does it's stuff.

I'm with Dusty and phrakture on this one, I think Arch is simple to maintain.
Good luck with your studies Karma.

I disagree with much of the above. I find arch requires considerable work to get it to do what I want it to do.
IE. I always have to make my own packages for things not packaged, I have to modify the base arch packages to get them how I want them, and I always seem to have to fiddle with this or with that..
So, I agree with you on that Karma.
Good luck with your studies too!

Optimize, customize...
Why!?
mmm...
Because we CAN.
LOL, can definately understand the time it takes when you find out there's another better or more interesting way to do something, or to make something work.
Your work and support has been very much appreciated, Karma.
