Hi Hervé, congratulations to being VP .....the unlucky victim....

The role of VP of maven is more a technical and legal responsibility in that the ASF board requires an officer of the foundation to delegate the powers vested in the PMC to. A few years back, John Casey suggested that we should try rotating this burden amongst the PMC on a yearly-ish basis. I have been PMC chair for the last year, and it has been fun times, but when I took the unlucky victim role I said it would be for one year only. True to my word, I asked the PMC to nominate a replacement. Hervé was selected and at the most recent board meeting I was released from these responsibilities with board approving Hervé as our new VP Everyone please congratulate Hervé on being our next unlucky victim! Please also remember that it is the community that determines the direction of this project. The PMC is there to ensure the project plays by the rules, the PMC chair is here to serve the project, board and PMC. I wish Hervé all the best for his stint... And I won't fear taking the baton up again next time ;-) - Stephen
