Yes. Pardon my absence from earlier, and pardon that i didn’t send a mail out 
to everyone. 

Anyways, glad things have settled for you Benedikt. 

Cheers,

Welcome back! Completely understandable as I was in a similar situation the
past few months but have moved on to independent consulting and have
regained a lot of time finally. Java 9 (and now 10!) are definitely great
places to improve!

Where has Benedikt been?

2017-12-21 Thread Benedikt Ritter
Hi,

following the example from Rob in early November, I’d like to explain my recent 
two month in-actvity.

As always this has been work related. I had to go through a pretty tough phase 
at work, that consumed all my energy. I’m currently working on a green field 
project for a customer, which will replace the customers core systems. So the 
project is very important for them and we had to cope with people leaving the 
project, becoming sink and of corse issues with the infrastructure ;-) Further 
more the project is located in Hamburg in northern Germany and I’m living near 
Düsseldorf in western Germany which means I have to travel to Hamburg every two 
weeks. Beside that my girl friend turned 30 last week and we organized a big 
party for sixty-something friends. So a lot to do for too few time.

But the year is almost over and I’m looking forward to some relaxing days off 
where I have some time to work on Apache stuff again. So I’m planning to work 
on my TODO list where I left off. I remember that I wanted to push some 
releases for Java 9 compatibility and move some of the components to git… I’ll 
have to dig though my mails to find out what I wanted to do next...
Another amazing thing that has just happened is that my company [1] brought 
their very first project to the Apache Incubator [2] and I’m part of that!

So I’m looking forward to being more involved again!
Cheers,
Benedikt
