Thank you for all your hard work and contributions to the project over the years Josh. Sometimes the work of PR and documentation (among others) gets sidelined and not given the appropriate importance. I wish you all the best in your current and future endeavors, and hope our paths will cross again sometime. Roberto

Thanks for all your hard work. It's not easy stepping into the (to hackers) un-sexiest role in the project, namely PR. I think I speak for all of us when I express our appreciation for your stepping up to this and staying at it, year after year.

Your leadership as a member of core and your focus on advocacy has definitely helped this community and project move forward and your contributions will be sorely missed. I don't believe we could ever replace you, to be clear, but hopefully we will be able to find others to step up in those areas you were focused on and continue to grow as a community and a project.

[HACKERS] Retiring from the Core Team
Hackers: You will have noticed that I haven't been very active for the past year. My new work on Linux containers and Kubernetes has been even more absorbing than I anticipated, and I just haven't had a lot of time for PostgreSQL work. For that reason, as of today, I am stepping down from the PostgreSQL Core Team. I joined the PostgreSQL Core Team in 2003. I decided to take on project advocacy, with the goal of making PostgreSQL one of the top three databases in the world. Thanks to the many contributions by both advocacy volunteers and developers -- as well as the efforts by companies like EnterpriseDB and Heroku -- we've achieved that goal. Along the way, we proved that community ownership of an OSS project can compete with, and ultimately outlast, venture-funded startups. Now we need new leadership who can take PostgreSQL to the next phase of world domination. So I am joining Vadim, Jan, Thomas, and Marc in clearing the way for others. I'll still be around and still contributing to PostgreSQL in various ways, mostly around running the database in container clouds. It'll take a while for me to hand off all of my PR responsibilities for the project (assuming that I ever hand all of them off). It's been a long, fun ride, and I'm proud of the PostgreSQL we have today: both the database, and the community. Thank you for sharing it with me. -- -- Josh Berkus Red Hat OSAS (any opinions are my own) -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
