Hi Mike

The enthusiasm on the various networks was limited. The other sysop's are relatively
skeptical about the matter. In my opinion, the reasons for this owe a little to the 
history of such forums. Apparently they have had bad experiences with it, or they 
fear competition for their own networks. But that's not what I wanted to achieve!

But I will continue to run the forum in parallel and see what else I can put in as 
information into it. And then you just have to wait and see. (what happens) :-)

End of this this I plan to retire. I've got 40 1/2 years then! Enough is enough and
many things changes very badly to my Police headquarters since 2019 the new 
president was in charge. Before this he was the vize-president. The president's
before were totally ok! I've got a lot of contacts to them! We are about 2.700
policemen in this headquarter.

Maybe you said this, too..  It isn't the same, as 20 years before. And mostly things
changed to the bad!

So... from the 18th of april I till the 16th of december I'm either in the german air force
(I'm in the reserve), or taking the overtime or holidays, incl. savings vacation. Hope
I wrote this correct?

In the week 16th of december I do my administration for leaving and the 31th of 
december is my last official day in this "association".

From 2025 onwards I will only join the Air Force occasionally. Makes more fun!

Greetz

Mike
