The Most Prolific Packager for Alpine Linux Is Stepping Away

They say... The most prolific packager for Alpine Linux is stepping away. Is that true? I wasn't aware that was something a person could do.

I'm perplexed. Are they going to keep on replacing whoever's in charge? If so, who's next? There's nobody else in containers, who looms quite as large...

Ubuntu?

I know him. That can't be. That's that, little image who grew too big for me. What was it, 85MB? That poor NAT Gateway, they're gonna eat it alive!

Static binaries, built in Zig. Next to Alpine they all look big...

Upvoted for rhyming. But to your comment, I'm sure Alpine will be fine. Just might be slightly behind while other maintainers pick up the slack.

It's a reference to Hamilton. Definitely reads like nonsense without the context, though...
