I don't think there was an official announcement so here it is: I have left the LOTS / fossdays team a few months ago, with regrets as helping to organize the LOTS 2005 conference was very interesting and rewarding, and the team was a cool one!

But one can only do so much in a day...and I was feeling like spreading myself too thin in the first half of this year. Hard choices...

Update: A few days after posting this I learned that the remaining members of the LOTS association have decided to close it down. I guess everybody is too busy to organize a new event as big as the last two, it's really LOTS of work ;-)
