Hi.
I am getting to a point in my life where I'm ready to maintain a handful 
of small SlackBuilds. And today as I was thinking about it, it occured 
to me that SBo has a mirror on GitHub. I don't want anything I write 
used for LLM training, so as long as that's the case I won't be doing 
that on SBo.

I don't really expect to sway the community, I know the arguments for 
keeping the mirror. I won't be swayed either. I'm just stating this as a 
fact for y'all's consideration.

I'll probably not completely stop contributing to SBo, but that will be 
a heavy consideration each time.


To finish this off on a funny note::

Did he take his own advice?

Cheers, Jay
