Open Stack

Hi Rob,
                                                                                                                      
 We will definitely miss you as our co-chair. I am thankful that I have had the honor to work with you since day one  
 (the "Spider" cycle). The past few years had been challenging, but the efforts really paid off to get DefCore and    
 RefStack to where they are today. Thanks again for your vision and guidance.

Subject:	[OpenStack-DefCore] My time ending as DefCore CoChair. DefCore
            mission remains essential



DefCore,

I want to thank everyone for your support during the last few years as we
worked together accomplish DefCore.  This was a hard challenge and I'm
proud of what we built together.  I believe our continued efforts are
essential to OpenStack success in the market both for the software and the
ecosystem that we hope to create.

That work is far from over; however, it's time for me to step back and
allow another person to steward the process.  Egle, Alan and I all believe
that my replacement does NOT have to be a standing board member.  They will
ask the board to confirm that position.

Egle is an amazing leader and has been a tremendous benefit for DefCore but
she cannot do it alone.  By design, leading DefCore is a collaborative
effort and I'm looking forward to seeing who you select for the new CoChar.

I will remain involved as needed and continue to both advise DefCore and
serve as historian.  My attention is turning from single platform interop
(DefCore) toward cross-platform interop (Hybrid Devops).  In that role, I
may be able to bring added perspective into the OpenStack efforts.

Thank you.

Rob
