Dear Bernie,

I also wish you a Happy New Year ;)

is owned by Sugar Labs. The original plan was to split and empty the mix of
stuff which was on "treehouse/housetree" onto "justice" for Sugar Labs (1)
and on "freedom" stuff of OLE and Treehouse (2) as soon as possible, so
that I could move my drives back to new fixed housetree (3).
We also agreed that "freedom" would be hot-swap of "justice"


(1) happened only in parts and housetree starved with the rest when last
harddrive gave up ~18months ago.

(2) was done the first month ~3 years ago -> also did not give anybody else
then me access on "freedom"

(3) never happened because (1) did not complete - but instead 3 months
after I got somebody hacking himself with physical access and reboot on my
system on "freedom", then modifying it and allocating half of the free
space.
when I complained I did not get the expected apology, but instead I got fed
with a phrase ala "backup space on housetree is too tiny and need to make
sure that our systems are save" ;) anyway I got reassured that it will be
only the backup and that I could delete it when I would do (3). Another 3
months later the hole systems crowd (yes you guys) had access to "freedom"
- nobody ever got my personal permission. Now all the stuff which was too
experimental or heavy (like buildmachines) for "justice" was done on
"freedom" ... as long they was got behaving VMs (low or contained disk I/O)
it was not a big problem for me, it would be nice if people would keep me
in the loop ;)
Anyway I am still totally against docker on the main system and I do docker
a lot (https://hub.docker.com/r/dogi/rpi-couchdb/)
-> this year we had to the usually yearly MIT poweroutage some addtional
docker crashing the main system failures :(


Anyway I am very sorry that the original plan of divorce (split up) tanked,
we are again inter-tangled - even if I wanted I can't just remove my drives
anymore - and I think it is not completely my fault ;)

gave you ~200G 12 months ago
and ~300g 6 months ago for it

replicator,  vote, beacon,  buildslave-* and docky are not mine

I stopped genome, honey, nicole and openbell ~2 months ago but I still need
to save the data from there
