Some of you might have noticed, between sips of highly caffenated

this group provides, that I haven't been around that much lately.
Unfortunately just before Christmas I was given a new boss and new
responsibilities that changed my daily schedule. This, on top of
other changes to my daily schedule, has severely limited my ability to
provide a near-constant presence in the Fedora community. As much as
I hate to do this I feel that I must step down as the Documentation
Project Leader to allow someone with more cycles in their day to
continue the work.
This isn't a bad thing by any stretch of the imagination. It was
probably time for someone with new and different ideas to step up and
keep the project interesting. There have been a lot of changes under
my watch and I can hardly wait to see the changes that occur under the
next watch.
Back in November when we were entertaining the thought of holding
elections for my position, Zach Oglesby came to me and said that if I
needed to bail out of the position that he might be willing to take on
the responsibilities. Since then I've been talking with Zach and
today he agreed to take on the position. I'm very excited about him
accepting the position as he has been involved in every aspect of the
project for a while and I know he has some exciting ideas about moving
the project to the next level.
Thanks to everyone who helped me through the years (two?) that I've
held this position. Every contributor to this project has made it
successful and for that I am greatful to you all.

First I want to say thank you to Eric, for the time and hard work he
has put into the Docs team over the last few years. We have had a
great deal of success in the last few releases thanks to his great
management.
I would also like to say thanks for giving me this opportunity to
lead. We all know that this is not a dictatorship, and that leading a
community is not about making rules, but about helping people to work
together to make a great product and that's what I think we do best. I
don't want to change the way things are done, I just simply want to
help to create the best possible documentation for the best Linux
distro around.
Once again, thanks for the opportunity! I look forward to working more
with everyone.
