Don't worry, I will never abandon cfengine without replacing it
with something better. However, my direct involvement in
changes can no longer go beyond core activities and I hope
that the final of these issues will be resolved i the next
major release.

I am constantly working on other things that go beyond cfengine
but this seems to interfere with cfengine maintenance.

I need to have tight control over development until the these
are fully implemented. After that, it will be easier for
others to contribute more freely (of course this does not mean
that they will...).
