He was code factory. Look at the number of projects he's created single-handedly.

  It is indubitable that people should be judged by the totality of their actions, yet it is rarely so. I think at least some communities judge _why by the way he exited stage right in the middle of the play. (Full disclosure: I don't like him)

    so it would be better if he never left the stage but didn't produce half of the excellent material (both written and in code) that he did? Thankfully I don't belong to 'communities' that consider things that way...

      Of course not. However, you are equating his choice of ending his online presence with the quality and quantity of his work, or at least implying that they are related. Can you offer any arguments to prove that point?

  That's not necessarily a good sign

    Those are mostly successful open source projects. I'm not sure how you can count that as a "bad sign".

    It's not unusual for a specialist to churn out volumes of code from a single project: if you look at his projects you might see an emerging pattern .. _why was a specialist in fun. cheers to the persona, and I raise the man a pint of his adult beverage of choice!
