This is an open source project. Everyone, including Walter and 
Andrei, should feel free to step down at any time, for any 
reason. They owe the project nothing. We're happy for the 
contributions they've already made. If they want to spend more 
time with their families, it is my hope that they will step away 
and not give it any further thought. One measure of the success 
of the language is that it works pretty well right now and the 
project will go on even if Andrei has decided to move on to 
Javascript (the creator of which, I will note, moved on in 2011).
