Re: [yocto] [Yocto-Advocacy] Yocto Project Community Manager updates

Nico: you did a fantastic job as Community Manager, as I knew you would.
You always do a great job with everything you take on, and this endeavour
was no exception. Your help with the virtual summits is especially
appreciated; they wouldn't have happened without your help. Jeffro did a
great job setting the tone for this role; you continued on his great work
and made the Yocto Project even better. My congratulations to you.

Josef has been a visible member of the community for a while. It's exciting
to see him take on an even greater role within the community. I know Josef
will waste no time making this position his own, and doing interesting
things with it!

Let me chime in.

Nico, thank you so much for your leadership as the Yocto community 
manager and beyond. You certainly made sure that the community remained 
welcoming and supportive to new and current members. I very much 
appreciate all the effort you dedicated to the project and its community.


Welcome Josef, as the new community manager.

Cheers,
Rudi

Thank you Nico for the five years in which we had the pleasure of

talk of the olde times...


And on the same note, thank you Andy, Richard, and all of the 
leadership working group for the trust placed in me. Let us make this 
a change that keeps the good and adds more of it.


Greetz,
Josef

I know we've talked but I did want to publicly say thanks for
everything you've done in the role!

We've had some good times and overcome some challenges in the last few
years, the project has definitely benefited from your involvement and
you'll be sorely missed.

Welcome to the role Josef, no pressure! :)

Cheers,

Richard

Dear Nico,

Dear all,

After five years, I have decided to resign from my position as the 
Yocto Project Community Manager. I joined the OpenEmbedded community 
around 2008. I have fond memories of my early days, and still remember 
some of my first interactions on IRC and mailing lists! This is a very 
welcoming community, always helping new people with patience and 
kindness. Serving the project during the last five years is something 
I am very proud of, and I will be forever grateful to all of you for 
accepting me!


During these years, we have gone through a lot together, the pandemic 
gave us an opportunity to rethink how our community should come 
together. Setting up our Virtual Summits has been a lot of work (and 
stress!) for a group of few people, but the never ending success of 
these events has been very rewarding! Our online presence in social 
media has dramatically improved, and allows us to reach out to and 
interact with our community faster than ever before!


On the side of all the technical changes, and releases, we have also 
established the Yocto LTS process which was a recurring request from 
the community and has become a strength of the project! We also 
revamped the project documentation to make it easier to maintain and 
contribute. The Yocto Project documentation is such a great resource 
for our community! I have spent so many hours on these PDFs in my 
early days!


Anyway, let’s not focus on the past! The future looks bright and I am 
really excited to announce that Josef Holzmayr has accepted to take 
over the Community Manager role. Josef needs no introduction, he has 
been a key member of this community for so many years. Thanks to 
Josef's relentless efforts, we have grown our social media presence on 
Youtube, Twitter, LinkedIn and Mastodon! His energy will be a great 
source of inspiration for this community! I wish Josef and Yocto the 
best for the years to come, and I am convinced this community is in 
good hands and that Josef will be a great community leader!



Many thanks for everything you did for the project, and are still doing 
for the wider embedded Linux community. You will be missed here but I 
hope you will still be around.


Now the bar is high and Josef is expected to stay as an official 
Community Manager for at least 5 years ;-)


Thanks again to you Nico and thanks to Josef for taking over!
Michael.
