CF Extensions PMC changes and Community Advisory Board (CAB) lead nominations


Troy Topnik
 

I am both happy and sad to announce that as of next week I'll be at a new job outside of the Cloud Foundry sphere. I'll need to hand off my Community Advisory Board and CF Extensions responsibilities.

The Extensions PMC lead role will probably not require a direct replacement because of how the CF governance structure is changing, but the CF CAB meetings should have someone nominated from the community to run them. If you're interested in taking this on, please contact Chris Clark or myself in the CF Slack. If you'd like to nominate someone to lead these monthly calls, feel free to do that in this thread.

Cloud Foundry is the most supportive and inclusive software community I've encountered, and I thank all of you that have made this so. I promise I won't be a stranger. 

Cheers,

TT

Hi Troy,

 

It’s definitely sad for me to hear you are leaving. Thank you very much for all the work you have done in the Cloud Foundry space over the years! It’s always been a pleasure working with you.

 

I hope you next gig will provide another Open Source community the great benefit of you being part of it and hope our paths will cross again in the future.

 

All the best,

Bernd

Troy, thank you for all you've done for us! Wishing you the best in the new gig. 

And, yes, folks, we'll need a new host for the CAB calls, so if you know someone both hospitable and amenable to that, please nominate them. 

As Troy mentioned, it likely doesn't make sense to fill the Extensions PMC lead role given upcoming technical governance changes. So, in the interim, I'll take on some basic PMC management duties... please reach out to me directly or in the #cf-extensions Slack channel if you need anything.
