Thank YOU, Guillaume, for coordinating this so diligently, week after week.

Good luck to the new maintainers - it is transitioning to good hands!

> Hello,
>
> I wanted to let you know that the Community Engagement (Product) team (CEP)
> [1] is going to gradually replace me as primary writer and coordinator for
> Tech News [2].
>
> When Tomasz Kozłowski (User:odder) and I started Tech News over two years
> ago,
> I didn't think it would grow to being translated to nearly 15 languages
> every
> week, or to being distributed to so many subscribers and community pages.
>
> Tech News was originally created as a way to connect the two communities of
> developers and content contributors, and I think it's done that job pretty
> well. In the meantime, the CEP team was created, and they have a very
> similar
> mission. They already manage very similar newsletters (like the one for
> VisualEditor) and it makes a lot of sense for them to also coordinate Tech
> News.
>
> I wanted to send this email to let you know about this change, so that
> you're
> not surprised when you start seeing emails about Tech News coming from the
> CEP
> team. Johan Jönsson (Johan/Julle) will be the primary point of contact for
> Tech News, and he'll also be working with Nick Wilson (Quiddity). I hope
> that
> you'll be as supportive to them as you have been to me over the years :)
>
> Which brings me to my last, and most important point: Thank you for all
> your
> help on Tech News over the past two years. Whether you helped me draft the
> newsletter, or you diligently translated it every week, or you notified
> your
> community about upcoming changes: I'm very thankful for the time you have
> dedicated to Tech News.
>
> I'll still be around on the mailing lists and the wikis during and after
> the
> transition, and I hope to continue to work with you on other projects.
