Daniel Yacob is in our group, Tegene. Is that important to you. But he thinks this as I don't know how to put it " waste case"
Does this compute. He needs more challenge and although I have no idea what he is talking about. He is a white person. PHD. This people are like Harry pattoer.

Daniel may be ቀይ, but that doesn't make him white (no offence to our white friends here). He helped me a lot in my early years and I can understand if his priorities have changed. Though I wish he can mentor some one like Eyob to continue on his work, such as at Gnome. But he knows best what he can and not.

I don't think you need to delete it (i don't know if you can at all since it is in our inbox). We surely can express our frustrations, real or imagined without causing any damage. I am of the opinion actually  we are not doing enough that. Of course the appreciations and recognition need to be expressed too.
 
Any way I found the fallowing, one of Daniels works. enjoy.

Tegene:
Glad to hear you say something. I always miss your voice. I don't know about Daniel. But he is fluent in our culture and looks to me like a white person. I could be wrong. I invited him to this group and he accepted it willingly. I am glad he helped you as well. I am sorry to have mentioned his name at all. 

Eyob doesn't need any of us. He will stand by himself. I am just benefiting from his questions to remember what I lost.

Tegene:
I just finished reading  the PDF thesis you placed. If you think we are on that level you are wrong. We are just small carpenters who try to make a chair and no more. Daniel's PDF is profound and can change the way things are. Eyob and I are just trying to understand the fundamentals how things work. 

Again I apologize for mentioning his holiness!

Hi guys,

Haven't read the pdf yet. Will get back to you on it with my thoughts.

Belay, I appreciate your confidence in me, and I will do my best. But I can use every scrap of help anyone can offer. I still got ways to go :-).

From what I know Daniel is one of the legends in the Ethiopian open source scene. It would be beneficial to get any assistance from him, but we have to believe whatever course he's on it's for the best.

Best regards,
Eyob
