NB Community Docs: Stepping Down

Hi all,

I have a big announcement to make in this blog entry, and I'll try to keep it as short as possible.

After two and a half years of managing the NetBeans Community Docs program, I've decided to step down. As a technical writer, I've been assigned duties other than NetBeans (Cloud Computing training courses), and it only makes sense to let another writer who is still writing for NetBeans take over.

There. I've said it. It's been a wonderful ride as NetBeans Community Docs Manager. I've met lots of great people, and I've made some friends for life, but it is time to pass the torch.

328 contributions from the community. You should all be very proud of what you've done, and how you've made the program such a success.

As of tomorrow, the new NetBeans Community Docs Manager will be Jeff Rubinoff. Also a blogger, I wish Jeff all the best in his tenure as manager. I wish him all the great cooperation I experienced during my time as manager.

Please join me in welcoming Jeff to the position.

So, I say goodbye to you one last time as manager of the program. Working with you has been one of the best experiences I've ever had.

Cheers!

--James
