Hi all, Thanks a lot to whomever nominated me for the event officer position, it is much appreciated. As it was discussed with the Jenkins board, I would be willing to become an event officer role if there was no other nominees. But there is another nomination. I will still run for the Board position, but I would like to withdraw my name from the Event officer election.
*Why?* I indeed help to organize a lot of events, including GSoC, Hacktoberfest, meetups, etc. And I will keep doing so. But for me such events are an instrument to building a stronger community, getting user feedback and to ensuring Jenkins' future by facilitating changes in critical areas. It is an extremely important instrument, of course. I like small events and direct communications with users/developers, conferences/booths/budgets/etc. - not so much. But big events are a critical part for the Jenkins community, and this is the most important part of the Event officer role. This position deserves having a professional event and marketing program manager like Alyssa. I will be happy to continue working with Alyssa in the Advocacy and Outreach SIG and sharing the load like it happens now.
