[geos-devel] PSC Resignation

[Paul Ramsey]

Thanks Dale, for your time with the PSC over the years and for Safe's early support and validation of GEOS as a library that could to "real work for real people" back when that was, curiously, an argument that had to be made!
Yours,
Paul

The reasons are twofold — I'm at a stage in my career that I'm as good as I once was (though I'm as good once as I've ever was) -- I digress, but seriously, I'm no longer doing active development of any kind so my opinions would be suspect.  And secondly, at Safe we no longer are making use of GEOS directly.
