Just writing to add one more voice of gratitude to the chorus — thanks, Bob, for all the diligent and tactful moderation work, keeping the mailing list running fruitfully for longer now than many (?most) of us have been in the field. It’s been a model of moderation, keeping things civil and on-topic without discouraging people from wide-ranging and often lively discussion — a difficult balancing act that’s often unnoticed as long as it’s maintained! With much appreciation, –Peter.

Instead of "we will miss you" I want to say "see you" because I hope we will communicate with you and see you, at least on CT conferences, as before. Thank you so much, and Very best regards to you, George From: johnm@math.ubc.ca Sent: Friday, October 27, 2023 6:30 AM To: Bob Rosebrugh Cc: categories@mq.edu.au ; johnm@math.ubc.ca Subject: Re: Signing off Dear Bob, Your service over these many years has been greatly appreciated. It has promoted many valuable connections for me and was of the utmost help to me when holding many CT and FMCS conferences in Vancouver. I am glad to see that this valuable forum for category theory has been transferred so smoothly and will hopefully continue for many years to come.
