I posted the following in #gentoo-apache on irc.freenode.net:

If any of you are intuitive, you will have figured this out already. I’m retiring. After a lack of support in getting anything done, after blowing up my hard drive trying to compile many modules and their dependencies to see if they worked or not with Apache 2.2 (which I lost the results of because of said hard drive crash), and the need to focus my time and energy on other things (like getting my wife’s business off the ground), I’ve found that Gentoo is no longer for me.

I won’t bother with an announcement to any of the lists, I’m not really known outside of this channel anyways.

I’ve already removed myself from the herd and e-mail alias, and changed any metadata that was pointing at me.
