It is with a bit of sadness that I must announce that Ronny (Roadkill) is demoting himself and stepping down as editor of the Dutch site. Ronny has done a great job in building our Dutch community to where it is now. For Ronny it was both a situation of now having a full-time job and wanting to give the Dutch group the highest standard of attention. He felt he couldn't do both and should turn the reigns over to someone who might have more time to devote to the site. I respect that decision.
Luckily he will still be on staff as an Assistant Editor to help us out as time permits!
And also we are lucky to have Danny (Eagle) to take over as Editor. Danny will be seeing how many projects he can juggle for us!
They have both done a fantastic job lately. As have Juul and Robert. A special thanks to my whole BENELUX team!
Cheers,
Jim

Wow, that's good news bad news all at the same time.
I'm sorry Ronny has had to trim back. For Armorama it is a loss, for Ronny it is a good thing.
I'm happy that Danny has taken up the TC spot! I know he will do a fantastic job.
My head is heavy and high all at the same time.
To all involved for whatever reason you need - here's to you -
Good Choices all around........

Ronny did a good leadership for the Dutch forum and this is a loss but I think a full time job was what Ronny wanted and good to see he will be happy.
on the other hand, I belive Danny is the bestest choice and he can handle more..especially when Robert and Juul are also in the team. I will keep visiting Dutch forum and improving my poor Dutch.
Thanks Ronny ...welcome and Good luck Danny.
