[dms-discuss] I am moving

[Roland]

Hi Logan,

This got sent to my Spam folder as "suspected phishing" by Gmail, I'm
guessing others had the same issue judging by the radio silence.

Can't believe you got all those printers running, that's fantastic! Those
things were always so finicky, you'll need to spill the secret to taming
them (please don't say knowledge and hard work?).
They will be a cornerstone of the new space at the library, looking forward
to seeing them in action.

I don't have much storage space, maybe enough for 2 printers long-term.
Hopefully this reply gets some eyeballs on it so we can get some
takers, I'll wait a few days and message again separately if I don't hear
anything.
If we can't find enough storage in time for the move, I can take everything
temporarily and distribute from my house.

Also just want to say thank you for the expertise and time you've given to
the space over the past couple of years (did 2020 even happen?).
Congratulations on the next chapter, San Diego is a great city, enjoy it!

-Roland
