Just a short note about GWN

OK, so now as we all just love going over and over recent retirements, something else I've noticed:

Only 3 people were mentioned as retired developers on the latest GWN issue.

If there's a policy to "clean" a workpool from nonactive developers, why keep it secret? Is there an official community resourse announcing retired developers other than GWN?

On the other hand, I noticed how successful (IMHO of course) Planet Larry became. Maybe its time to add to GWN another section, such as "Seen on Planet Larry" (as addition to "seen in the community")?

Wouldn't you agree?

There's no active policy to keep retirements secret, as far as I know. I suspect that it's more the case that nobody sends the GWN an e-mail when people are retired. It's rarely wise to assume malice when simple laziness, overwork, or oversight will suffice.
