Hello everyone, nice to meet you all here. I am writing this letter to appreciate the ones who helped with the process of Ambari's resurrection.
I started trying to contact the relevant people to promote this process on April, I have emailed all the former PMCs/Committers of Ambari, and 100+ IPMCs to ask about their willingness to bring back Ambari, it took me all my spare time after work, including my holidays, but still, unfortunately, most of them are too busy with work to help this, I almost give up until I got positive response from Devaraj, Atri and Evans. Evans was the most important person in the whole process. He helped connect with Roman, a board member of ASF, who did the most important and hardest thing in the process, and Wei-Chiu, the PMC Chair of Hadoop, a core component of BigData ecosystem and Ambari, which is great help for the future of Ambari. He also introduced me to the Bigtop community, where I met Brahma, who helped connect with Matt, Uma, Suhas and Vishal. And Kengo, who helped connect with Yuqi, Masatake, Jun and Masahiro. Finally, Ambari successfully returns as a TLP, and we are gathered here as the new PMC members. Thank you, Devaraj and Atri, for giving me the confidence to continue this process. Thank you, Evans and Roman, for helping with the most important things in this process. Thank you all, for making this happen. Let us make Ambari better than ever. Best Regards, Zhiguo Wu
