    I don't know, but I'm starting to suspect there's something in the air - Chris Alcock of "The Morning Brew[^]" still hasn't returned from the 2-week break he went on at the start of August. Combined with the terrible redesign of the MS Dev Blogs[^], I'm starting to think I might actually have to stop reading news and start doing work soon! :laugh:

      You don't think Kent Sharkey joined them too? Haven't seen the Insider for two weeks now :omg: I missed the announcement on CP too, but read it on LinkedIn last week.

      Actually seems like the whole team has been on a two week vacation. At least they left the hamsters.

        Chris Maunder - Professional Profile[^]:

        After 25 years at CodeProject I'm making a change. I've spent nearly a quarter of a century helping developers share knowledge, learn, and overcome the hugely rewarding challenges of software development. It's been amazing but my focus needs to shift closer to home with a focus on family, wellness and balance. While I'm certainly sad to be moving on, I'm proud of what David Cunningham, myself and the rest of the team achieved.

        I must have missed the announcement - I had to see this first over on LinkedOut[^]. And it looks like Matthew's moving on[^] as well. The end of an era, and we didn't even get the chance to get blind drunk and make fools of ourselves raise a toast. :(

        This sort of explains the complete lack of feedback to all the users asking where their newsletters are. But the real question we now need answering is, "Is CodeProject about to close down?".

          Yeah... my heads up was all the messages about missing newsletter of the insider... I would have found it better if they had done an annoucement with a sticky message in the lounge or at least in the B&S Forum, most of us are here over a decade too and have worked with the guys through a lot of situations. A proper good bye to all of us usual CPians would have been more than justified. I have only found a bit of info in people leaving, but nothing on what's going to be from now on with the site. And I am really sad about it, it doesn't show much respect for us the users.

          M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

            Sad to see them go, but they have earned a well-deserved rest and I wish them all the best :thumbsup:

            So do I, but still... there are different ways of doing things. (see my answer below)

              People said yes, I think several have gone. The "About us" is way shorter that it used to be and I have been told it is not up to date anymore (several of the people already working in other place as per their profile in LinkedIn)

                @chris-maunder Code Project changed my life in major ways. Very few things, besides the birth of a child, have done that in my life. So thank you and the team for incarnating Code Project and my best wishes to your family and finding wellness and balance. I hope everything is OK.

                  Ohhh that's sad. Well deserved retirement from the zoo keeping tasks. Been here 23+ years; I feel old.
