First of all, thank you for all the work that you've done, the great tools that you've brought to the community, and the vision that you maintain for a better world for users and developers of software.
I saw your free software presentation at a Linux user group meeting in New York a couple of years ago, and you mentioned that you don't spend nearly as much time coding as you did in the past, and that most of your time is taken up in managerial roles (I assume this includes advocacy).
Do you miss the time when you spent more time creating and debugging software, and do you see any time in the future where you'll get to spend more time doing those things once again?
...that talked to two replicated RAID arrays way on the back end...
How did you implement this, may I ask? Particularly, how were the two RAID arrays mirrored, and how did the Web Servers/Database servers do I/O with them?
