Hi all, after more or less 100 Tech Reports, this is my last as Lead Writer (at least for a while) due to real life time commitments. This won't come as news to many of you (I've already missed quite a few weeks in the last couple of months) but I thought I should mention it as it may mean that there are no Tech Reports for a bit. I hope that isn't the case – some people have spoken to me about contributing already – but there is a pressing need for a lead writer to coordinate those contributions, if nothing else; please do shout if you think you could fill that role. In any case, with the creation of Tech News it's probably time for a reassessment of the Tech Report as an independent source of technology news anyway (and whether we can really be bothered, given the ~4 hours a week time requirement), which I leave you to ponder. All the best, - Jarry1250 [Vacation needed] 10:56, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

 * Thanks Jarry! I always enjoyed reading this section. Just a note about this one: While the title is about VisualEditor being set for rollout early July, the report itself does not mention nor details that information. Cheers! Nicolas1981 (talk) 05:05, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your work Jarry. I'm putting a well earned Signpost barnstar on your talk page. --Pine✉ 06:29, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Jarry, your excellent work on the Signpost's Tech report is what prompted us to create Tech News, because we wanted to spread technical updates to a wider and multilingual audience. I hope you'll be able to join us and help write Tech News; your talents and experience with the Tech Report would be much welcome, and it would require much less of your time. guillom 08:34, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the great work on the tech reports. Honestly it was one of the main reasons I read the signpost. Bawolff (talk) 17:50, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
