I think we met only once in Seville in ... 2016..

I also would like to take a few moments to thank you for the work you've
done for us all. Just like for many areas in life, we take things for granted
and only when there is a change we sometimes become more attentive to
what people have done for so many years without being recognized enough.

Good luck and I hope you'll enjoy the ride of your next adventure!

John, I think the last mail I got from you was when you stepped down... I assume
that the equipment that was considered then state of the art is now under heavy
development as part of your vintage hobby? ;)
