The explosion of OpenStack over the past year has once again highlighted the significant impact that an open source community can have on an industry. Within a single year, over 100 participating companies and 1,300 community members have joined together to create the de-facto open source cloud computing standard. With this enormous growth comes a broad array of possible work opportunities that are unique in challenge and scope, and I have decided to move on from being your Community Manager to take up new projects within OpenStack. It has been a pleasure for me professionally and personally to have participated in this community as your Community Manager, and I thank you for your amazing support and efforts in driving OpenStack forward. I look forward to its continued success and welcome Stefano Maffulli as your Community Manager.
