This just in from the openBeOS website...

"I regret to post that Michael Phipps has sustained rather painful injuries to his foot and knee, occurring this past Sunday. Due to his injuries, he is going to be unable to proceed with his current tasks for a while, but he is expected to make a full recovery. *whew* For those of you screaming "Anarchy!" right now, don't worry, Michael's tasks are being redistributed within the admin community to sustain some form of order. But back to Michael...

I know I speak for everyone when I say Get Better Michael, and we all hope to see you back soon!.

We will continue to post status updates on Michael as we recieve them."

As will The BeOSJournal. We wish Michael the best of luck in his recovery, and hope his injuries have no long term effects.

Thank to Kurtis Kopf for first reporting this.
