EVE General Discussion

"All good things come to an end."

I'm sure all of you know that quote.
That point in time has come for me.
After more than eight (8) years with EVE and more than seven (7) with EVEMon, I have decided to retire my space boots.

Some of you may say "What's the reason?".
Some of you may say "Good riddance. I won't miss you.".
And some of you may say "Can I have your stuff?".

To the latest my answer is "NO".
To the earliest my answer is "I just got tired. Basically I stopped playing EVE since I became EVEMon's Lead Dev.".
To the others my answers is "I feel the same about you. Move along.".

A few of you may wonder "What will become of EVEMon?".
Well, that's the reason I'm announcing my retirement, to also announce the position's opening.

EVEMon Development Team is looking for the next Lead Dev.

Requirements for the position:
1. A fairly good knowledge of .NET/C# (WinForms)
2. Familiar with git VCS.
3. Basic knwoledge of CCP's XML API.

That's it. That's all it takes.

If you believe you can become the next EVEMon Lead Dev, get in touch either via my EVEMail, until the 15th of May 2016 or via EVEMon's email (can be found on our official website).
Those who are considering for applying shouldn't be intimidated from the responsibilities of the posiiton, I will be available to help out and guide the person(s) who will take over, even after I have left EVE.

My subscribtion expires on 16th of May 2016 (07:30 EVE Time) and I won't be extending it, so I won't be able to respond to you after that date via EVE Forums or EVEMail, though I will still be able to respond via EVEMon's email.

That's it people.

Update: Blitz Bandis will be the next EVEMon lead dev.

thanks man. EvEMon is one of the best 3rd party app i've used. good luck! o7

Those are some big shoes to fill.

Thanks for all of your hard work!

Just signing in to say thankyou, there's a fair chance I wouldn't still be playing without it keeping track of the **** I'm way too lazy to. Enjoy life o/

I've been using EveMon since my first day in Eve.... Very sad news, but now you can go out & enjoy the sunshine!

Thank you and good luck

Sad to see another great capsuleer leaving New Eden.

Hope you come back

So it's YOU! My compliments, good sir. EVEMon will indeed be in the annals of internet history. It is a digital gaming staple. It's hard to think of a more useful, practical and can't-do-without-it software application. The one fortunate enough to fill this dev slot will at the same time take a position in this vaunted history as well.

It's certainly good to see you surface even if it was to say farewell. Thanks for all the significant assistance you've given us all over the many years. May fortune smile upon you and the road before you.

Thanks for your excellent work with EVEMon over the years, a very useful app. Good luck for the future!

It sucks that you're quitting. Thanks for providing a nice program for all these years.

PS: Can I have your SP?
