Hi Rich, Thank you for your decade plus work as VP, Conferences. In my experience you’ve done tremendous work and yet I appreciate your choosing your focus to be here on Community.
For those criticizing Rich’s personal decision as “bad” because “sales”. Please volunteer as a track chair. I was one and due to the way the selection process was run it was much harder to know who the speakers were. I’m not sure whether or not this helps with “vendors”. Regardless, volunteers are able to help if they are constructive.
