[RUS-WG] My departure

[piro at to.infn.it]

Dear Josh,

I'm sorry to hear that you are leaving the world of usage accounting, but
I can perfectly understand as I myself am now at an institute that does
neither work on nor use grid computing technologies (and it's very
unlikely that I will be able to work much on RUS in the future).

Thanks for the excellent work on RUPI (your contributions to the RUS have
indeed been very valuable!).

I'm sure I also speak for the others when I wish you the best for the future!

Cheers,
Rosario.
