Description John Arthorne CLA 2016-01-04 09:43:40 EST
I am leaving IBM for a new job opportunity that is not Eclipse related. My last day at IBM is Jan 5, 2016. I need to step down from all project lead and PMC positions at eclipse.org, and complete paperwork to transition my commit rights under a new employer agreement. Positions:

- Eclipse PMC member
- Cloud PMC lead
- Orion co-lead
- Flux co-lead

I guess I'll be the first..;-). Thanks for all your help over the years, it's been a true pleasure to have worked with you...

Good luck in whatever you do !

I would really like to close this as WONTFIX ;-)

+1 You definitely will be missed.

Thanks for everything that you've contributed over the years. I wholeheartedly agree that closing this as WONTFIX would be a preferable resolution.

I've retired you from all of these positions. Thanks for your service to the projects.

In addition to everything that you've already listed, you are an appointed member of the Architecture Council and Security Team. You will retain these appointments until you tell me otherwise.

Good luck, John, and thanks for all your great work throughout all these years. I really enjoyed working with you in the early 2000s, and learned quite a bit in the process, not only the technical stuff, but how to communicate effectively (with users and and with other committers) in an OSS project. I have also been a happy user of your work in the Eclipse Platform and Orion.

Wish you luck at your new gig/project, looking forward to learn what is next for you.

Thanks Wayne for taking care of the process, and to everyone for the best wishes. I'm sadly going to have to declare this one FIXED :)

John - sad to see you go. 

I did not see it mentioned, but I assume you will continue on the Eclipse Board
as committer representative for now, or ?
