Re: New lead for Community (CAB) meetings

Hi Friends,
Please join me in welcoming @Troy Topnik as the Cloud Foundry Community Advisory Board (CAB) Meeting host.  Please also join me in thanking Dr. Max for his gracious, thoughtful, and inspiring leadership through these years in not establishing (the call and more importantly, the momentum) and leading CAB meetings to such great success.  We will sorely miss him as the host but we will continue to see him as a participant.

A huge thank you to @Neil MacDougall as well, for offering to support Troy as and when needed.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the awesome folks at Stark & Wayne (especially Ashley!) for diligently hosting this meeting on their zoom bridge and recording every meeting.  The recordings[1] are so much more helpful for those who cannot join these meetings live.  Thank you, Ashley and the S&W crew, for continuing to do this.

I would also like to thank the awesome folks at Altoros for diligently writing a summary of each call on their website[2].  These are extremely useful for those who are unable to either attend live or watch the recording.  Thank you, Team Altoros.

Looking forward to seeing you all in the next CAB meeting on Wednesday, February 19th at 11AM US Eastern. 
(You can add this and other regular community meetings to your own calendar from the community calendar posted here[3])

Cheers,
Swarna.

Dear CF Community,
Max (popularly known as "Dr. Max", cc'd here) has been running Cloud Foundry Community Advisory Board (CAB) meetings for the past 4-ish years now.  As he mentioned during the recent calls, 2020 is a great opportunity for any of you in the community to nominate yourself (or someone you know is interested) to take the baton from Max.  Max will continue being an active member of our community; we just think that other members may want to take an opportunity to step up and make their mark in our community.  

The responsibilities will be to host 
  • the monthly CAB calls by sourcing interesting topics/demos for the meetings
  • in-person CAB meetings at Cloud Foundry Summits (we, from the Foundation, can help you with that)
If you are unsure of the responsibilities or if you would like to talk to Max directly, please feel free to reach out to him.

Please send us your nominations no later than February 5th.
