Stepping down from Fedora Marketing

[Justin W. Flory]

Hello all,

I'm sad to announce today that I am formally stepping down as a regular
contributor to the Fedora Marketing team due to new time constraints.

I'm approaching the end of my degree and have increased loads from my
curriculum and I'm also working more hours than I have before during the
academic year. I'm aiming to scale down my contributions in Fedora to be
focused and consistent in fewer areas than to be insignificant and
inconsistent in many areas.

With that in mind, I'm not going to disappear completely and I hope to
contribute when I can, but it will be less frequent and more random. I
also hope to finish out some of the work that we discussed this year at
Flock before stepping out completely. I also still plan to help maintain
the social media presence, albeit less often than I do now.

Over the years, Marketing has been one of the most unique sub-projects
to contribute to in Fedora and there is no shortage of things to be done
or problems to work through. I've been lucky to meet a lot of you in
person at Flock or in other places in the last two years. Thanks
everyone that has been a part of the journey and experience.

A special thanks is also deserved to Gabriele, who helped get me started
with Marketing and I've always appreciated his insight and time to help
myself and others contribute to Marketing.

As always… keep the FOSS flag high, and see you all around.

Hi Justin,

I'm very happy to know that you are working hard for your degree and  I
wish you all the best,
We will obviously miss your holistic point of view of the project,
always accurate, always ready to help and guide,

so, many thanks for helping us and see you around :)

Hello Justin,

I'm sad we won't get your constant presence and contributions. but I'm glad
you're busy and about to graduate and that you're not disappearing
completely.

Kind regards,
Silvia

That's really bad! If I was a CEO in a private company I would not accept
your resignations.
But sadly I'm not, so I'm forced to resign myself to not see you as
frequently as in the past couple of year.
I still have lots of ideas I was not able to explain you before this
announce (in every contribution areas in which we both are involved), but
I'm glad your presence here made me more "productive" than ever.

I wish you the best for your degree and for any future in your life.

Of course you won't disappear! Otherwise I could come to look for and bring
you back, willy-nilly (is this correct? I meant to say if you want or not).
Above all you don't have to join any other community, expecially Ubuntu,
because we don't want they take advantage from your contributions!

You're wrong here; all the Mktg Team thanks you for your presence over
those couple of years; you were able to give us new ways for getting things
done and for throwing on the table new ideas.

Thanks so much for that, I really don't know what I've done for you, but
(at least this time) I consider your thanks  my best personal success in
the Project.

As always dear friend.
We we'll see around, take care of yourself.

My friend,

I want to say thank you for all your hard work with Marketing and
personally for helping me to be here in the Marketing team. I'm here as
your mentoree and I'm really glad to be it. I will continue working here,
and your presence will be really missed. I hope you finish all your
projects: personal, academic and from work, with goodness.

I really appreciate everything you've been done for the project and for all
the help you gave me.

Br,
