--yrj/dFKFPuw6o+aM Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable - Announcement core-secretary - With this scrap of email I want to announce to the world my appointment=20 as the new FreeBSD Project's core secretary. So what am I going to do? First and foremost the core monthly reports are mine. At least the drafts are, as core does the final edits before I publish them.=20 Secondly I will be the keeper of the core agenda and the tracker of action points, which will hopefully help to ensure less balls will=20 be dropped by email-flooded core members. To help me do so I have been=20 handed a small whip to keep things rollin' :-) This of course includes the procedure around source commit bits.=20 Port commit bit grants should continue to be requested via portmgr@FreeBSD.= org=20 and not via core@FreeBSD.org (so no change of procedure here). If people want to send me email they can do so at core-secretary@FreeBSD.org In general it is probably better to cc: core@FreeBSD.org on such emails as I am not always there to act on emails myself (business trips,=20 vacations etc). In such cases core is informed and will take action themselves. There is no need to explicitely copy me on email sent to core@FreeBSD.org as I am a member of that email alias. For those wondering how I became insane enough^W^W interested in the job: the discussions on developers@ around the core monthly reports and the call for volunteers to write them triggered it. I am convinced that everybody out there has more productive things to do than fight email wars. And that is what made me sign up for the job. Core accepted my offer. Some reports have already been published, others are in the core editing pipeline at the moment. So stay tuned for more. I'm open to any constructive critiscim.=20 For those interested in my background: I hold a BS/EE in computer science. I worked as a hardware design engineer and later as a software engineer in Unix engineering at Philips Information Systems. In later days I was a software integration engineer at Digital Equipment Corporation. Today I'm an enterprise storage consultant for the Compaq storage division. I live in Arnhem, the Netherlands. My vices include good malt whiskeys, dark Belgian beers, German Autobahns with either the Honda motorbike=20 or the Audi A3 turbo :)=20 Wilko=20 FreeBSD Project core-secretary --=20 | / o / /_ _ email: wilko@FreeBSD.org |/|/ / / /( (_) Bulte Arnhem, The Netherlands=09 --yrj/dFKFPuw6o+aM Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 5.0i for non-commercial use MessageID: gwZY1vVhA408TC7vo4UR7cBjikGSBNwD Comment: Requires PGP version 2.6 or later. iQCVAwUBPD6bvPymwUj/iuMFAQEy+QP/cJtskm3OQzROL+goCFFSdwHl6nV2als7 RgU7pnseIL0KV1AzYtWa+8PUa7QiznxI6r1Jx3QeainkMs8xiLNNx1bH72Hqfqez ElmgkJi9H/01yVgdIzXReNhSedaVrhhO7YdO9w6OuEgi4aITlyP6ZO73d7X/lYU0 /4A9VYuMhCM= =qeaW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --yrj/dFKFPuw6o+aM-- This is the moderated mailing list freebsd-announce.
