Hi Bryen, It was great building up the marketing team with you. I'm glad to hear you will continue to be part of the team and I look forward to continue working with you specific projects like social media for openSUSE 12.1! Thanks a lot and all the best for your job hunting!

Dear Team,

In early 2010, I was elected by fellow marketing team members to lead the marketing team. I've been grateful for the support and have thoroughly enjoyed everyone's participation in the team as we moved forward. And on a personal level, I've had the real pleasure to meet so many of you in person across the globe. You are all so amazingly energized and hard-working.

Times have moved forward since those early days. This is truly an empowered marketing team and so many of you have a clearer definition of what your roles are when it comes to supporting and marketing the openSUSE Project. For me, the evolution is stunning. But that's not to say we don't have more work to do. Of course, there's still more opportunities to build stronger campaigns, effective organization and highly visible awareness of the Project to the world. But these are ongoing things that will always have "opportunities for improvement."

I've loved working with so many of you. But at the same time, I have expended many hours of my life on this and I need to start taking care of myself and addressing my own needs as well. I am also beginning a job search. I took two years off from work to give openSUSE my full-time attention and now I need to give Bryen my full time attention. Therefore, with the launch of 12.1, I will step down from my role as Marketing Team lead.

But this doesn't mean that I'll be gone!:-) Far from it, I'll still be around and helping out and supporting the openSUSE Project in any way that I can.

So let's keep that openSUSE Fire burning and thank you all for giving me such a rewarding experience.

Bryen M Yunashko Heavy, dude, but I understand. I always say - real life goes first!

I would like to thank you for your huge dedication. While we might forget it sometimes, without you the marketing team would not be what it is now. You've brought so many of us in, motivated, welcomed us. I vividly remember my first weeks, being greeted and guided by you.

So thanks a lot for your hard work these years, for your friendship and guidance. Please stay around, at least a bit, don't forget us! I wish you the best with the job seeking (and finding, hopefully).

May the fleas of a thousand camels infest the crotch of the person who screws up your day and may their arms be too short to scratch!

I also have to thank you and really have to say that I love it to have you around! I really hope you´ll find a new job quickly and that you´ll find something that´s fun to you! Remember: If you´ll have a job that´s fun to you, you´ll never have to work ;-) So, good luck and a real big thank you for leading the marketing team! --kdl -- -o) Kim Leyendecker, openSUSE Community Member /\\ Email: leyendecker@{lignus.de.vu, opensuse.org} _\_v http://www.opensuse.org - Linux for open minds -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+owner@opensuse.org
