Hey guys, the deadline for council nominations is now over. There was only applicant this go around, so there is no need for an election. As such, I immediately announce Stephen Michael Kellat as the newest Ubuntu Ohio Council member! Please congratulate him when you get a chance.
At the same time, I've spent much deliberation about my own participation in the Ubuntu community lately. Given the many community-less top-down forcible changes over the past couple years, it has become more and more clear that my ideals simply do not align with that of Ubuntu's mother organization. I also realize that in a way by continuing to be involved, my kindness has been taken advantage of. As such, I've decided that I will no longer sacrifice my own time to the benefit of that organization. So, also effective immediately, I am stepping down from the council and ubuntu-us-ohio. That said, I still think Ubuntu Ohio and its people are great, but I now consider the direct link to the mother organization unacceptable. I'll still hang out in IRC and you'll find me at OLF, but I have to separate myself from the group due to the above reasoning. That said, congratulations to Stephen, and best of luck to everyone!
