Heart and soul

Goodbye Aimee Linden and Tofu Linden.

We’ve had a good first few weeks of the Snowstorm team. It took a little longer than we’d hoped, but we have launched the Viewer 2 Beta for version 2.2.0, and we’re continuing to move forward (new beta very soon).

Much of our success in this period can be attributed to the unstinting efforts of Tofu and Aimee, who have really done amazing work in the last few weeks.

We at Linden Lab made a corporate decision back in the spring to close down our entire presence in the UK; all UK-based Lindens were affected, with varying timing. This means that Tofu and Aimee will be no longer be Lindens after Thursday.

This is where I bite my tongue.

This is me, biting my tongue.

    Errrm, this just leaves Oz presiding over any independent contractors within Linden Lab now doesn’t it? Where’s the real work for Snowstorm going to come from, outside commiters exclusively?

    Nevermind the rumors circulating Oz the last few days.

  2. Linden is starting to sound more and more like Henchmen every single day, and we all know what happens to them.

  3. Hey Tateru.

    It’s also sad to see Spike Linden go tomorrow. Spike Linden’s Farewell Party tomorrow on September 30th 2010 starting at 2am – 6am SL time if anyone wants to come along to it. He will be sadly missed.

    [3:09] Spike Linden: sorry I was in other windows.. yeah. My last day tomorrow.

    Again it’s sad to see Aimee Linden and Tofu Linden go. :(

  4. Goodbye Aimee. The Lab does not know what it loses with you.
