Geoff, you really deserve a lot more credit than you've allowed us to
share. NewDocs was your brain child and you worked hard in the formative stages. I know others encouraged and helped, but you did the grunt work.
The only reason I got involved was because of you, and because of your
gentle, unassuming leadership. You've always led by example, from the doing
to the way you've encouraged others to become involved. Your vision was
infectious. Your vision has been a success.

There are absolutely no hard feelings toward your resignation on my part. Of course I would encourage you to stay on, even at a lower key. You grasp certain aspects of NewDocs differently than I do or David does. I've relied on that during the times I'm puzzled or uncertain about what I'm doing. But I know it wouldn't be respectful to try to pressure you to stay on. You know your own needs best and I must respect that. Hopefully from time to time you'll still feel like putting your 2 cents worth in. And I hope if you have another of your good ideas you'll share it. All of that would be most welcome! But only at your own pace and as you feel inspired to do so,
my friend.

Best wishes,
Leigh

Besides leaning myself on a humble bow to express my thanks to both.
To you Leigh, for the words you once again, so truthfully and heartily,
manage to illustrate how we regard Geoff. And to you Geoff for being
exactly as those words describe you.

Best wishes,
David



Hi Team,

This drama needs to be resolved.
Would it be possible for me to return to the Team?
At a diminished capacity if necessary.
Thank you Team for your kind words.

Best wishes,
Geoff.

I sincerely apologize for all the drama I have caused.

Geoff.
