Christian Hergert, the author of the GNOME Builder integrated development environment, the Ptyxis terminal emulator, and the GNOME Text Editor, announced that due to relocating from the USA to France and changing life priorities, he will no longer be able to devote appropriate attention to GNOME development. Christian was essentially the sole active maintainer of 16 GNOME modules and dedicated over forty hours a week to supporting and advancing the GNOME stack.
