Hi everyone,
As some of you are aware, I have been employed to work full time on a project involving the customization, deployment and reporting from Ganglia in a large enterprise. This has allowed me to dedicate some of my time to collaborating with the open source community to (hopefully) improve what was already quite a neat product before I was first introduced to it. In the near future I am making a transition back to the world of IT consulting and contracting. Although I do see myself using and contributing to Ganglia in the future, it may not be on the same scale as what I have done over the last couple of years. I think it's quite important that I make people aware of this because of my role as the release manager for the most current release, 3.1.7. I am very aware that some of the changes I have introduced are a little controversial and some people may have preferred alternative solutions (or maintained the status quo). I am also aware that some of these changes will lead to some additional requests for clarification and support on the user's email list. One final comment: I just want to thank all those who have contributed to a project that is being used very successfully on an enormously large scale. When participating in this project through the mailing list and IRC, I can't help noticing that there is an observable difference between the quality of the support and interaction here as compared to support from some large, well paid commercial vendors that I have dealt with over the years.
