Greg, I know I speak for many in expressing deep gratitude for the organization you've created and the opportunities it has afforded all of us. There are so many ways that this community and its work have supported and empowered people to spread their own skills and abilities to the world. We all owe a deep debt of gratitude to the integrated energy you have put behind this organization and movement. We're sad to see you leave, we look forward to hearing about what you're up to at Shopify and your continuing impacts in this space. We look forward to hearing from you and seeing you around on the mailing list, GitHub issues and maybe even teaching at workshops.
You created something pretty amazing, we are deeply thankful for all that you have done for this community.

At the end of January 2017, I will be taking a position as a Computer Science Education Lead at Shopify, where I will help with their CS education partnerships. I'm excited about this, but also look forward to continuing to be involved in the Carpentries as a volunteer, and to many more discussions of teaching, open science, and how awful Git truly is. It has been a privilege working with you all - watching you turn a handful of lessons into a global organization empowering tens of thousands of researchers has been the best experience of my career. Thank you for everything. Best wishes, Greg -- Dr Greg Wilson Director of Instructor Training Software Carpentry Foundation _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.software-carpentry.org/listinfo/discuss
