[gatein-dev] Goodbye

Hi all, It is with mixed emotions that I finally write this email. Today is my last day at Red Hat after almost 8 years. I joined in the old JBoss days to work on JBoss Portal and, having gone through lots of revisions (and several product names to seemingly come back to JBoss Portal ^_^), I felt it was time for me to do something new and tackle new challenges. So, mixed emotions because I will miss working at Red Hat (though I won't be missing BugZilla much) mostly because of the talented people I got to work with daily and, even though we rarely met face to face, I will miss the camaraderie that we had in the Portal team, the satisfaction we got delivering a great product (almost) always on time despite tight schedules and last minute client RFEs or bugs uncovered by our ever excellent QA team! I will also miss my interactions with the support guys and gals who always helped tremendously scope and fix customer issues. "Thank you" barely scratches the surface of my gratitude but thank you nevertheless! On the other hand, I'm obviously excited to work on new things and hopefully work with new people as well but my JBoss / Red Hat years will definitely remain special. If you feel so inclined (or need to get in touch with me regarding WSRP ^_^), I can be reached at metacosm(a)gmail.com. Find me on LinkedIn or twitter as well (@metacosm). I wish the best to all of you and may our paths cross again in the future! Cordialement / Best, Chris == Principal Software Engineer / JBoss Enterprise Middleware Red Hat, Inc.
