Daniel Robbins lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He was the founder and chief architect of the Gentoo Linux project. He wrote several articles (http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/articles.xml) for IBM Developer Works (http://www-130.ibm.com/developerworks/).
He announced his resignation as Chief Architect of Gentoo Linux on April 26, 2004.
Daniel racked up a debt of over $40,000 that was spent supporting the Gentoo developement effort. He was given the right to run the Gentoo Store in perpetuity so he could have a chance to pay off some of that debt. Running the store was a huge effort and started costing him more than he was bringing in. Because of this and the desire to spend more time with his family he made the decision to close the store.
