Re: [ANNOUNCE] New Struts PMC Chair - René Gielen

2011-04-26 Thread Rene Gielen
When Martin informed the PMC that he thinks it's time to pass the torch,
it was much to the regret of all of us. I think we all wished that he
would carry on to be our chair for the next six years (at least) - not
only because we were so used to him, but because he made such an
absolutely awesome job as our PMC chair.

There are a couple of write-ups of what the duties of a PMC chair are
and how one should act in this role, and I've read them all (at least I
hope ...) - but most importantly I've seen Martin over the last couple
years filling all this theory with life and spirit.

I feel honored to follow Martin as PMC chair, and if you're asking what
changes you'll have to expect - well, Martin has less work now, and I
have a little bit more. That's basically all, folks :)

Thanks Martin for your hard work and dedication over the last couple of
years!

 Please welcome René as the new Struts PMC Chair. Congratulations, René!

Thanks, Martin!

I mean in the thanks for doing all that, not thanks for stepping
down, sense.

 [...] René Gielen be appointed to this position as my replacement [...]

Congrats, René :)

I'm sure I speak for all of us when I thank you, Martin, for having
done a great job for all these years. And Rene, thanks for taking this
up. Best of luck to both of you.

Phil
