Hi Martin,
*Thank you.*
I'm retiring at the end of November 2021, it's time to spend more
time
with the family.
We started the Quality Outreach back in October 2014. We now have
170+
projects participating.
Thank you for taking the time to provide Testing feedback , excellent
bugs and support throughout
the last seven years.
It's been a pleasure working with you. I am delighted to say that the
program will continue
with the support of the Java DevRel Team, with David Delabassee as
your
contact. David has
been assisting with on-boarding new projects for the last couple
of years.
All the best, Rory
